Day 4 More climbing


Heading out of Omak to Tonaskin I had nice tail winds and flat roads which helped the morale level early in the day. I briefly stopped in Tonaskin to reup on food and get some expresso in me for the climb ahead. Out of Tonaskin there were no breaks until the top of Wauconda Pass which was another big climb. I was contemplating staying in the town of Wauconda overnight but once I arrived there I realized that by town they actually meant a gas station. So I pushed on over Wauconda Pass and had a well needed fun, fast, down hill ride for about 15 miles. I had plenty of time to get things done upon arrival so I found a laundromat, which also had showers. So I was able to clean myself up while my clothes were washing. I found the fairgrounds about 3 miles out of town. I then set up camp quite quickly and made some pasta with alfredo sauce and spent some time looking over the maps. I plan to be into Idaho by day 7 and Montana by day 8.
Miles Today: 60
Miles Total: 309
