Day 3 - Twisp to Riverside

Today we started from Twisp which is on the eastern side of Northern Cascades National Park. The scenery has changed remarkablely from the green lush forests of the Cascades to the semi arid zone of the the northern-mid Washington. It's like being in a cowboy western because we are in the cattle range of Washington. We came through the Colville United Tribes Reservation for native Americans. It's over 1 million acres.

So, it was out of Twisp and up to the Loup Loup Pass (4020). We climbed 3500 feet and then down the into the town of Okanagon and on to the to Riverside where we were well taken care of by the people of New Life Church.
