We rode 55 miles from Woodinville to Skycomish on a gray day, pleasant for riding until the last 10 miles up the mountain, when we got quite wet. The small towns along the way had wonderful names--Startup, Gold Bar, and Index. We knew we were in Washington State because there were espresso/ latte bars in unusual places, and lots of stands selling delicious fresh Rainier and Bing cherries at unbelievably low prices.
First views of the Cascades. It was pretty clear that we would get wet once we started climbing.
Supposedly a pice of a 1000 year old Douglas fir. I didn't count the rings.
An ice cream break as we entered Big Foot country. This stand was featured in the old movie "Harry and the Hendersons".
Yarn bombing in Skycomish, something to do with old bikes. The Main Street of this very small town parallels the railroad tracks, with lots of trains going through all night long.
