Today was the longest and toughest climb of the summer. We ended at nearly 2109 feet!! It was so hard, I had to walk several times. At the top we were met by Aunt Lynne who had lemonade, watermelon, and delicious hot tea. It was heavenly and awesome to see Lynne again. We were all super appreciative.
In town, we bathed in the feezing cold river before going to a local book/coffee shop to hang out.
Tonight will bring more adventures or just sleep time. We'll see.
I am so impressed. To have such a steep climb on your fourth day of riding.....It must have been awesome to see Aunt Lynne at the top--with refreshments, no less. Wow. Your other climbs will now be compared with this, most difficult, one. After the Adirondacks, you will not see elevation or big hills until Wisconsin (maybe some little hills there)--and then not again until Montana. What a killer beginning of a trip. Congratulations to all. Love, Mom
