We started in the foothills still within view of the Frank Slide. When seen from a distance you can see where the entire side of the slope came down.
The shoulders of highway 3 were probably the best we have seen to date.
We met Greg at Pincher Station for a check in and a short snack then travelled to Fort MacLeod where there seemed to be only one restaurant open. Not coffees to be had but BLTs all around.
Heidi saw a family of badgers (mama and two babies) and there were a few mule deer dead in the ditch along the route.
Arrived in Lethbridge on a very complicated route into the campground while the traffic and headwinds were picking up. Mike, Dave, and Nancy enjoyed drafting off each other from Fort MacLeod into Lethbridge. Overall a lovely riding day for Fathers Day!
Cheers,
Mike
