Default Another great road trip!

Just got back from a 1200 mile road trip from Boise Idaho to Eureka Montana and back, what a great trip! Ran a lot a fantastic roads, one in particular was on highway 93 heading south up Lost Trail Pass. It’s a two lane highway which opens up to two ascending lanes the last 10 miles, a 70 mph speed limit and one 20-40 mph rated curve after another! Wow, I ran it hard and the new GSD3’s stuck perfectly, I had to take a break at the top to get the smile off my face! Just one of many great stretches.

I didn’t take many pictures but here are a couple of them:

Following the Salmon River looking at the Sawtooth Mountains, heading into Stanley Idaho. (the HUD is not really as dim as it appears)

In Stanley

Very cool and great pictures. I want to make a trip to that part of the country soon. I'll mark your route as it looks like a great driving and viewing experience.
