We had lunch at the 1 STOP .  We got to  visit with a rancher and his grandson. He was hauling a load of road mix
to Mountain View .

One of my objectives was to find Indian Bathtub hot spring.

Well we rode right to it , turned around without realizing we were there .

Another view of the Bruneau Canyon .

Using Google Earth you can see several tracks to the canyon edge . Can’t wait to go back during the next warm spell.

Ventured to the top of the Cinder Cone Butte for the first time . It’s about 400-500 feet above the desert floor .


This might be the last big bike for a while , 50F is about my limit for highway riding even with GORTEX.
