2013 July 14 Palouse SP to Kamiah, ID

After another look at the falls, and reading about Anthropologist Fryxell who found 12,000 bones in lava a bit down stream, IMG_5727 IMG_5728

we push on, back south to US 12 headin’ East on the Lewis and Clark Trail.  More interesting patterns on the hills.  Lots more wheat farms.  Climb to 2785’ and then back down,

And wind farms…

Two different ways of stacking bales that we hadn’t seen before...

As we cross into Idaho, US 12 becomes the Northwest Passage Scenic Byway.  Lewiston, ID and the Snake River

Heading south on US 12 and we follow the Clearwater River for miles and miles, twisting and turning around the huge bluffs.  Lots of floats and canoes out on the beautiful river on a beautiful warm day.

Stop in Kamiah, ID for groceries, fuel and overnight at the County Park next to the Clearwater River $5 for 15 amp electricity.  First sweet corn of the year for supper!  Yea.
