Ride Report

Once over the state line at Spokane you briefly cross the top bit of Idaho called the Idaho panhandle. I could have blasted through in half an hour on the I90 freeway but chose a scenic back road over Thompson Pass which proved an outstanding choice. The state line with Montana was at the summit of Thompson Pass. Here are some random photos taken during the 3 hours crossing the Idaho panhandle.
