Hiawatha Biking It

I'd been wanting to try out the Route of the Hiawatha bike trail for a while, so when the Millers opted in, we headed up to Lookout Pass and checked it out. The trail follows an old railway line through the mountains, literally. The first tunnel was around 1.6 miles long, so it was definitely an experience in the cold, wet dark. Otherwise, the trail was pretty smooth and easy going. 

Got a little muddy in the tunnels...

Summertime Hijinks

There's a short window in the summer when the weather is hot, and the river isn't so high that it sweeps you away. From mid-July through August, we took full advantage. We found a few new spots to get down and get in the water, plus multiple trips to the lake of course, and evening walks are always a must.

Even Drax learned how to go for a swim...

Never up to any good...

Floated the Bitterroot, with only a few moments of peril...
