Day 9 John Day to Baker City: 85 miles and 5000 ft elevation
Today was a 3 pass day, Dixie, Tipton, and Sumpter passes! Phew. So glad to have the company of Colleen. We talked, ate and battled the climbs, heat and wind together. We road through old west of Oregon and old towns of Sumpter, Whitney, etc. Finally we made it into Baker City and stopped at the first store for drinks of orange juice, cranberry raspberry juice, water and Cheetos! Wow, saved the day. Road through the old town of Baker City with cool buildings then arrived at camp. RV park with nice showers and great shade. We looked at maps to plan out the ride through Idaho which we will enter tomorrow!
Baker City is a cool old town. Very historic. Nice to get the update. Cheetos kick ass!
