Checking in from Elkford

Checking in from Elkford, BC, approximately 120 miles into our journey. I oscillate between excitement and trepidation about this trip, but so far so good. We even arrived to a parade here in Elkford where we got to see fire trucks and floats with all sorts of small town decorations.

Taylor’s laughter at camp and endless curiosity makes exploring even more fun. He rides for a bit each day and hangs in the trailer and listens to music and is Don’s cheerleader up the hills.

It has been the gamut of riding the last 3.5 days, from beautiful dirt roads to a bit of single track to forest trails that are Nordic trails in the winter. We’ve heard elk bugle from camp and have seen 2 bears feeding on the roadside (complete with a park escort past one).

We will write more soon but know that all is well!
