| Salmon River |
We continued south along Hwy 93 and followed the Salmon River all day long. The valley ranges from 1km wide to just 70m in places. The scenery is similar along the river with high hills topped with rock outcrops. The road is sparsely populated and we were surprised to find a café open in Elk Bend, a town of 25 that is not even on the map. The lady served us her homemade soup and presented the healthiest lunch we have seen so far - Soup, veggies, fruit and fresh buns. The weather was cooperative – cool in the morning, with a tail wind, but hot with a strong headwind in the afternoon. Of course all day we were riding upstream.

Glad to see you're both still going strong, in spite of puncture setbacks. Caught up on the past few days - don't envy you the mountian climbs and changeable weather patterns! Much mention made of beer, free beer, micro beer and..... tea and scones! Nothing like a good, balanced lifestyle. Pool looked very inviting, too.
We're enjoying good weather here - last of the summer rays lead to the (third!) last BBQ of the year.
Continued happy pedaling,
Sandra
