Bicycle Touring The Sierra Cascades Bike Route | Lake Chelan - Sunnyslope - Blewett Pass | S5 \ E4

Описание: This one is a dandy with plenty of downhill action on my way to the Wenatchee Mountain's Blewett Pass. It starts in Lake Chelan with a nice climb and drop into the Columbia River screaming thru a nice long tunnel at 40 miles per hour. It looks like a Star Wars scene, I promise. From there I cruised on down to Sunnyslope but not easily. The headwinds were ridiculous. I could barely get there. After a restful night in Sunnyslope I did the ride along US Route 2 passing thru the towns of Monitor, Cashmere and Dryden. Cashmere was the best of these towns with a great 9/11 memorial that close to brought me to tears. The apple culture along this part of the route was top notch. Once I arrived in Dryer I quickly made my way onto US Route 97 and towards Blewett Pass. I stopped just short of the big climb at this unexpectedly marvelous campground where I spent the night in my tent. Mt Rainer is only a couple of days ride away.
