We made it to Missoula!
Today seemed short despite our 60+ miles. We got up early to make it up and over Lolo Pass in the cool weather. At the top of the pass I got a recommendation from a local for the Lolo Brewery.
It was 33 miles of downhill to Lolo. Looks like the brewery is fairly new. We were disappointed they didn't have food, but stayed for a few beers anyway.
With a little buzz we hopped on the busy highway headed into Missoula. First stop in Missoula was the Adventure Cycling Association where we got our picture taken and posted on the wall and received a free ice cream for riding in. Then into a hotel to shower. Then to the Tamarack Brewery for some real food and another beer sampling.
Satiated and fully celebrated we walked our over stuffed bellies back to the hotel. Tonight we will finish washing and tomorrow I will work on the return journey home.
