Total Ascent: 1347
So we all survived our night at the Hideway Motel and agreed it would be a motel we always remembered and would have many stories to tell.
Here is a picture of the Feather River we rode around yesterday. Couldn't quite get it loaded as we were all having trouble downloading pictures.
A lovely ride along the Feather River and through the Feather River Canyon.
Todays ride was a casual 26 miles. A couple of short climbs but just beautiful riding through the forest. We rode past Lake Almanor and this is where PG&E has one of their camps for their employees. Don and I didn't make use of it but we should have. Beautiful huge lake and surroundings.
Lake Almanor
The lake is 6 miles wide and 13 miles long and is the eastern gateway to Lassen Volcanic National Park. Its also where the Sierra Nevada and the Cascade range meet.
Mt Lassen - snow covered. What a sight to behold as we were cycling towards it. We had to be quick with the photos as the clouds were moving in.
I thought this was interesting - the Chester Flood Control Channel. Not sure that I've ever seen one like this. Water flowed down and under the bridge and there wasn't a lot of water on the other side of the bridge.
Emily made a great breakfast this morning. French Toast, leftover eggs with leftover potatoes, broccoli, onions and other stuff. Absolutely delicious!
