We\u2019re taking a day off in Cantwell, so our dot didn\u2019t move today. We had our first showers and did our first laundry of the ride. Yay! Unfortunately, neither of the town\u2019s restaurants were open so we did our best at the gas station. Bikepacking can be pretty glamorous sometimes. Just not today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The last few days have been straightforward: ride north on the Parks Highway. To date we\u2019ve ridden 275 miles and climbed 10,000 feet in total elevation gain. We\u2019ve only had 4 snickers bars so far (gasp!) but that number will go up once our big bag of trail mix is gone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We kept pace with bald eagles a few times. No moose or bear sightings so far, and we\u2019re ok with that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tomorrow we\u2019re going to head up to Denali National Park. We may be a while without cell signal, although we\u2019ve been surprised so far so who knows?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re doing our best to send cool air down to those of you roasting in a heat dome. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
