Goodbye Oregon and Washington. For seven days we have biked through those two states. Washington north of Columbia river and Oregon on the south side.

The people we met in these two states have been very friendly and helpful. Many people have come up and ask where we come from and where we are headed. When we were searching our way out of Portland there was always someone there to help if we where lost.
Unfortunately we have not been able to stop and see as much of the surroundings as we liked. The warm weather has completely taken the life out of us and after long days of cycling, we need to rest.

In the last two days the temperature have decreased and we got more time taking in the landskape and the nature we bike through.

In Clarkston we crossed the Snake River and entered Lewiston, Idaho.
One day in Idaho and we can se quite a difference in the landscape. More trees and vegetation makes the landscape not so dead looking as in Washington. So far we are following ClearWater River and our path is flat without any high climbs. Traffic is heavy and it is quite difficult some times to keep your line when the big trucks pass. But, so far so good!

Tomorrow we will continue following the river and we hope to see more of this beautiful part of America.
