Butte to Wise River

Butte in the rear view mirror. Hurrah.

Not feeling 100% today but toughed it out. A long climb in the AM, followed by an amazing descent to lunch, and another long climb - this one to 7800' which is a new record on this trip. Climbing towards CO!

There was a pretty gnarly descent on the way back down today. The guidebook says it is the toughest one on the trip. Only one person rode it :-)


The campground that was chosen tonight doesn't have a shower or a toilet - I guess they figure everyone with their RVs bring their own. They do however have some cabins. So I opted for running water and a real bed.

It also turns out that the next park that we are supposed to stay in has been wiped out by flash floods. So, working on a Plan B. Probably end up being a short day tomorrow, followed by a really long one on Wednesday to make up for it. It all works out.

More pics late - the internet connection here is pretty bad and I can't get them to upload.
