A new state our... (WA, MT, ND, MN, WI,) sixth.
We left Brownsville, staying on the Mississippi River Valley. It was foggy. Not long after we began, then we started a series of up and downs...big ups and big downs. In fact we climbed 4800 feet today. That is second only to the 7000 feet that we climbed on our second day in the Cascades. Not only did we climb but we did 93 miles. So, all this was our hardest day so far. Everyone felt it.
While is photo doesn't really show it, just think steep as you look at it and you'll get the idea.
But the day was not without it's cultural diversity. We went right through an area where there are many Amish.
Distance: 93 miles
Total climbed: 4800 feet
Time in the saddle: 7:05
Total Distance: 2328 miles
