797.4 miles
Today was a long day on the road, 83 miles. We rode a beautiful stretch of State Highway 200 along the Blackfoot River and the up into alpine meadows and forests.
Stopped at a little town called Ovando and visited there great little town museum. They had a cross section of a tree that had stood in the town center since around the time Columbus sailed for the Americas (well before there was a town center), rules for riding the stage coach, and many other interesting things to see.
The last 27 miles to Lincoln were tough, but we made it and proceeded to get caught in a mountain thunderstorm while we were cooking dinner. We were lucky to have a pavilion nearby, though, and managed to take cover. Tomorrow we ride our last mountain pass, Rogers Pass 5,610 feet.
