Day 15 (July 12) (65 miles) by Brett


Left Prophet river Muni Campground early (0645) because the mosquitos drove us out. We were on the road in record time (1hr). No wind to a tailwind coupled with a slight downhill almost all the way to within 2 miles of Fort Nelson made for a fast ride. We had to pay for all of the down hill with a steep 1 mile uphill into town. No animals today, just lots of horse flies and mosquitos...not nearly as bad as Harlem, Montana, but darn near. put up camp in the Westend RV camp, then went and pigged out at the local pizza place. We went to the nearby museum for sightseeing. We had trouble uploading photos, so decided to use text until we are able to show pics of our journey.
