We decided to get away from our lot at Cascade Idaho for the day so we took off that morning and knew it was planned to be a long ride, but ended up being a little longer than we thought…We ended up with 248 miles leaving on the 4th at 8:00am and returning at 12:04am(16 hours) on the 5th, with no sleep overs anywhere along the way..
For those of you locally in SW Idaho…. We left our lot on West Mt Rd(by Tamarack) and met up with 2 other couples and crossed hiway 55 at Clear Creek Station and then south by Herrick Res to Sixty Ln in Round Valley and up to the south end of East Mt trail and road it to Cougar rock heading to Stolle Meadows but had to turn around due to road closure.. So we back tracked and made our way to the Warm Lake road(here in Idaho we can ride county roads legally) and went to Warm Lake Lodge and bout some ice for our coolers..From there we continued up the hiway to Landmark and took a left on Johnson creek rd.. From there we took the old Thunder Mt Trail to Riordan Lake , from there we took a new trail(something our local club and Forest Service have been working on for a couple years) to connect(loop) to the road that goes to Meadow Mt Lookout.. Then we went to the road that drops into Stibnite and on into Yellow Pine and was happy to pay $5 a gallon for fuel(we weren’t totally prepared for this far even though we all packed extra gas for trip).. We left there just as fireworks were starting and headed for home down Johnson creek again to the warm Lake hiway and into Cascade just as everyone was leaving the show there .. Made our way through traffic and around south end of lake and back up West Mountain road to our lot…. It was a great day!!!!! Here are a few pics from the day….
