Jun 3 - Castlegar to Creston 150km

Taking a break on the Osprey Ferry across Kootney Lake

On June 2 the guys biked from Christina Lake campground to Castlegar.  Doing so meant  another gruelling uphill climb over Rossland and then downhill into Castlegar - only problem was the wind blowing up the hill meant they had to pedal on the downhill as well, but they made it.  Spent the night with Gary's son Jeff in Castlegar before heading off again this morning.  They were enjoying a picturesque ride on great road beside Kootney Lake when last heard from and expected to make Creston before nightfall .
