Slowdown

Satellite is low on the horizon.

It has been raining a lot. I guess that is good as I head west into Washington where fires still burn. Northern California is still in bad shape and most who live there hope they get some rain soon. Mother Nature surly influences my journey while I try to evade the devastation she is causing with fire and flood in places I’ve passed through.

I have fallen into a creeper mode the last couple of days. Yesterday I drove only 50 miles and today even less. I probably spent more time exploring some forest roads than I did on the highway. Every time I would find a possible camp I would lose cell signal. I finally found a spot two miles from Troy, MT, with cell and sun.

I may not move for a couple days. The border of Idaho is only 10 miles west and Washington state not a great distance further. My plan is to head towards Cascades National Park. I was thinking of exploring up into Canada but that opens up a whole new set of issues. Banff National Park will have to wait.

    Next year you can take my Canadian National Park pass and visit Banff and Jasper for free.
