June 28

This was our longest day yet at just over 68 miles but was relatively flat.  We went from Snohomish to Enemuclaw.  A lot of this was along bike trails, first a trail along the Sammamish River then another along Lake Sammamish.  The first was paved and was great, the second is a hard gravel surface.  We also had a few miles along Rt 18 which was a busy divided highway and very noisey but it had a great shoulder. 

 

The weather was better than expected with no rain but became hot with a temp of at least 79 at one sign we passed. 

 

This will make the next two days relatively short for us and then the long climb up to Paradise Lodge in Mt Rainier Park. 

 

Unfortunately there were low clouds so we did not get the great views of Mt Rainier we would have liked as we rode south. 

 

Total today, 68, tot for the trip so far,1374
