( 3405.9 miles )
Started the day with a stop in Columbia Falls, Jiffy Lube, to have our oil changed and to the grocery store for vittles. Northeastern MT was quite rural with scattered ranches. (Example, Troy, MT population 953...one of the larger towns). Entered Idaho at 12:24 Mountain Time and then changed our clocks to Pacific Time. Followed Rte 2 from MT all through Idaho, many miles along the Kootenai River
Stopped for lunch at Bonner's Ferry Information Center.
Now entered by bridge but the Ferry existed from 1864 until 1889 when the railroad came to town and built the first bridge. Bonner's Ferry lies at the southern end of the Selkirk Loop, a scenic roadway that wanders through Utah, Washington and British Columbia including three Indian reservations. Our trip encompassed only 50 miles of the Utah panhandle. We entered Washington mid afternoon our campground at Newport/Little Diamond Lake. Now our 11th state.
