Slipping South of the 49th

We had a few days free between working around the hacienda and waiting for the twins so we made a quick trip for some camping down into NE Washington and northern Idaho. Mostly, this was in the Colville National Forest at Sullivan Lake and at a forest site near Bonners Ferry, ID.

The weather was excellent and the campgrounds were almost empty and, since the water hand pump wasn't working in our little campground, there was no camping fee. Operating on reduced services, apparently.

We did a bit of walking and some biking - easy stuff for a change. Watched some mergansers on Sullivan Lake.... Nice area, but dry at this time of year. Campfire restrictions went on after our first night there.
