The Klamath-Siskiyou Adventure!


Cantrall-Buckley Campground.
Flip, flip, flip... flip, flip, flip, flip.... Different footwear next time.
Rain threatens in the Applegate Valley.
Ahead of the rain. If you want Rees to ride fast, just put him out in the rain.
Is that an osprey?


It was a dark and stormy night...
Because it's a neato barn.

Renee, Rees, Ken, Ken, and Ken leaving Lake Selmac Rainforest Campground.

Storm lighting. Really was that yellow. Everyone else is eating sausage and biscuits at Taylor's in Cave Junction.
Begin of the Page Mountain climb.
Honey Badger gots van duty. Ate his weight in oatmeal cookies.
View back into Oregon from Page Mt.
This, too....
Into California after Page Mt. Summit Sno-Park. View from Grayback Road. Nice pavement.
Oh, yeah. I stop on descents to take photos. So?
Ken Stops for Sasquatch. Good milkshake at the cafe in Happy Camp.
Happy Camp. Laundry day.
FOOOOOOD! With Ken, Ken, Ken, Russ, Ken, Renee, Ken and Ken.
Ken and Wrong-Way Ken.
Ken, Wrong-Way, and Ken. Really.
Baby.
There are two Kens in this image of the Klamath between Happy Camp and Somes Bar, just left of the centerish road-tree.   If you were near me, here, it's you.

Klamath River, no Kens.
Two other Kens, just before the curve along the Klamath River.

Probably the South Fork of the Salmon River....

Ken.
So. Fork Salmon.

Forking Salmon River.
Mathew's Creek Campground. Lovely, COLD water.
Russ and Renee, no Kens.
On the curve at upper left, are the two Kens pictured below. I surely wish someone would take this nice a picture of ME on the road along the South Fork of the Salmon below Cecilville....

Ken and Ken.
A really lovely view along So. Fork Salmon, but a very tricky time of day to take a photo of it. Worth a visit.
Ken approaches Carter Meadows Summit. Renee had brownies. I had two. Oh, yes.
Honey Badger go fast, melt stripe. He crazee.
Descent from Carter Meadows.
This is serious Ken helmet-hair. Snacking in Callahan Emporium.

At Bob's in Etna with BobKen, Ken, and Renee

Not only did Ken take this, he turned around and came back to do it. THANK YOU, KEN!!
Thought he could drop me. Not uphill, baby.

Yep.
