Orcas

The first day we rode Orcas Island.  The day's ride was supposed to cover 45 miles. Unfortunately, several of us had difficulty reading the map and so covered 50 or more miles.  The scenery was beautiful no matter which route we took. 
The turnaround point in the morning was Deer Harbor, sj-deer-harbor-Orcas.JPG (64305 bytes) where we snacked and rested before heading back.  After a stomach gorging lunch of spaghetti we then headed for Doe Bay.   It was a nice 6 mile downhill ride to get there which, of course, meant a 6 mile uphill ride to get back to camp.  Here's a shot of a good looking couple that were at Doe Bay.

Since we were based on Orcas Island, on the days we headed to the other island weClark-Yoder-with-biketrailer.JPG (122624 bytes) would either ride our bikes to the ferry or transport them on Clark's bike trailer
