Camping at Sam Owen Campground in the State Park near East Hope, ID. Reservations through recreation.gov
Picture
Such beautiful scenes on this trip. Lake Pend Orielle.
Picture
Part of my route is on a designated US Bike Route 10. The map of the North Tier is from the Adventure Cycling Association.
Picture
Kootenai River runs through British Columbia, MT and ID emptying into the Columbia.
Dams along the rivers control flooding and provide hydroelectric power.
Picture
Near Penderay at around 2100'.
Penderay  is the way you say Pend Oreille which is the big lake that I am riding around.  The town has around 1100 people.
Picture
Sand Point with a population of 7300+  is a center of action for the neighboring counties.  A timber area that cleared space for farming and now a recreation area.  Three mountain ranges are close: Selkirk, Cabinet and Bitterroot. The ski resort near is the largest in Idaho. I am now less than 500 miles from the end of my trail. I better get moving again.
Picture
So many beautiful spots to stop.
Picture
This stretch had many towns and it was fun to explore, stock up and refresh.
Picture
On the right is Old Town in ID and on the left i Newport, WA.

Picture
I forgot this shot when I entered Idaho.
Picture
From Newport I head north along the Pend Orielle River which is a tributary of the Columbia.

Near Cusick.
