Great Divide Day 3: Saturday, July 2, 2016

Another bluebird day.

We left Polebridge at 7:45. A good start. Did 17 miles uphill in the morning. Had to walk the bike in a few places. Crossing the Divide at Red Meadow Lake. We went screaming down the other side, Anna leading the way and me on my brakes. Did about 23 miles into Whitefish, MT. We were able to get the bike shop to lube and adjust the bikes, then met Anna B. and her friend, Bryce, at his apartment. Had ice cream downtown and slept on the floor of Bryce's apartment for our third night on the trail. Felt good to take a shower. My t-shirt had all sorts of dried salt designs from a day of uphill sweating and downhill drying out. The Great Divide Trail to Whitefish is spectacular!
