Canadian detour was amazing

The descent from the ski area, through Chesaw, around to Curlew, then following the Kettle River up into Canada was up there with the most amazing stellar road cycling rides I've done.  After rolling over and through sweeping farmland valleys and hills dotted with pine and aspens, we descended through steep narrow mossy rock and forest canyon with swoopy twisting road all to ourselves, for miles and miles. Finally leveled out at the river- bordered by lush meadows and rocky cliffs.  Back to dry and hot, but with a brisk tailwind we made good miles.  Border Patrol were interested in our trip.
