This video is the fourth portion of a five day ride my brother and I took during the last week of June, 2012. We live in Boise and eventually ended up in Red Lodge, Montana. I sectioned our photos into four videos covering different segments of the ride. This part chronicles our ride from West Yellowstone across southern Idaho through Henry's Lake area, Rexburg, the INEEL (America's nuclear research lab), Craters of the Moon National Monument, and finally home. We kept finding historical markers dedicated to Chief Joseph and the Nez Perce. We rode into the town of Du Bois expecting to find a hotel, but had to back-track some 60 miles to Rexburg to the nearest accomodations. The ride was miserable due to the 40 MPH sustained crosswinds through Mud Lake and the INEEL area, so we were glad to be back home. In all, we covered some 1500 miles! Can't wait to do it again!
