It's a Lifestyle

Meriwether Lewis (Kevin), William Clark (Max) and Sacajawea (Dane) with newborn enterring Idaho and the Pacific Time Zone.


Cairn beside Weir Creek in Idaho. Max, Dane and Kevin made it here from Missoula, MT earlier that day and hiked our way to the hot spring pool about a half mile into the woods. Our entry was welcomed by two naked geologist PHD's digging on the spring.


Climbing through Idaho back-roads toward our hairiest downhill. Max and Kevin took the direct route down Highway 95, missing the turn onto Old Hw 95, the switchback mammoth. Dane made the turn and survived!


Dane, summitting the hot and windy Flagstaff Hill.



Descent into the arid canyon along the Snake river. In the ravine were crumpled trucks dating back to the 50s.

45th parallel. Just outside of New Meadows, ID.

Our gorgeous accomodations in Fruitvale, ID, regards to Dane's relatives. They built this log home, which is their business.


Bummer... Speeding through John Day, OR at night, Kevin picked up this lovely road screw, destroying his "indestructable" tires. Only flat tire since Denver...not bad.




At the hollyhock ranch where we were very graciously taken in by Pattie and Jim in Sisters, OR. The last mountain pass of the ride. The area near the summit was a lava field formed by an older blast.

We found some glasses near the summit.
