Rain, rain, rain, but nice green country. Incredible wetlands along Pend Orielle lake and Cark Fork river.
We had a few miles on a busy highway before a really nice bike path and bridge into Sandpoint. By then it was raining pretty steady so we stopped for second breakfast in Sandpoint. We even ran into some people we know from SOU. What are the odds of that?
After Sandpoint the road wraps around the top of Lake Pend Orielle and along the eastern shore. It was here that Kevin had a series of flats. I also had to pee alot after drinking a lot of tea in Sandpoint. So we stopped a lot and had time to read the interpretive signs along the lake shore.
We eventually go to our destination which was a nice resort in the town of Clark Fork, which is where the Clark Fork River hits Lake Pend Orielle. Although we had to pitch our tents on some pretty wet ground, the rain let up and they had a laundry we used to dry our stuff.
