Ride to Idaho Falls, ID


While a ride to Idaho Falls may not sound exciting, guess again!

We entered Yellowstone National Park around 9 a.m. The weather was outstanding and the traffic wasn't heavy. What more could one need in this awesome park.

We stopped at the Fishing Bridge and stamped out passports.

This really was a ride to Idaho - all of us have been to Yellowstone and Teton many times. We were fortunate to be able to enjoy the ride with little impact from other drivers.

On leaving Yellowstone we stopped for a photo op.

We even sailed through Jackson Hole, WY with no problems. We've experienced big backups in other rides.

We rode Wyoming Highway 22 to Idaho - 10% grades up and down into the Teton Valley. As we neared Idaho Falls we had ride through some construction, but with little traffic.

On arriving at our motel, Best Western on Lindsay we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the accommodations - for less than the room in Cody. The pool was large and clean and the hot tub was HOT and large!

We had a nice dinner at The Sandpiper...food was good but the other patrons on the patio were LOUD!
These photos were taken to capture the Yellowstone sign in the background - we were tired and didn't want to walk over there!





Today we are riding to Ontario, Oregon....
