Escalate, UT to Panguitch, UT – 71mi, 9.5mph, 5435ft elevation gain
Well. Prayers answered. Look at how my day began. These rocks were placed outside of my camper door. Remember my fears? Well. I conquered them. God knew I needed this message this morning. Insanely great day. I’ve been quite emotional. Ever since my momma visited Bryce Canyon I have wanted to see this. Not only am I seeing it… I am biking through it. I got 71 miles in today. The heat is much better due to the smoke layer coming from CA. It hit 95 but on the Bryce side only high 80s. I had 2 really big climbs and I have set myself up for a FULL day off tomorrow and time to explore Bryce Canyon.
When I start again I will climb to 10,200 as I get ready to exit Utah.
At dinner we met 2 men from Indiana. One currently living in our great state and one who used to live in our state. The “ Colts” shirt gave it away.
I got to adopt 2 critters for my grands today. Kinda excited about this. AND I got my picture with my man Smokey. Huge Fan!!!
