Going done into Ogden presented much more challenging "twisties", but still manageable in the 25 to 45 mph range. As we descended, we came upon a beautiful lake formed by a dam on the river that ran down through the canyon. A popular recreation spot for those living in Ogden.
Past the dam, the canyon became increasingly narrow and we came upon a beautiful little restaurant perched between the river and the road (pictures). The "brunch" was great and reasonable. As we approached Ogden, the canyon narrowed to no more than 50 - 70 yards with only the river and the road (picture). A waterfall cascaded down the canyon wall (picture).
Once into Ogden, the fun was largely over for the day. We picked up I-84 and headed to Twin Falls. The countryside was rolling hills, with wheat and other grain fields amongst the vast expanses of sage brush and desert. Pretty in its own way.
We arrived in Twin Falls around 2:30pm, unloaded and headed for the Harley shop - closed on Sunday. I was able to get some Locktite at an auto shop to save my highway pegs from falling off.
We are now off to dinner and then a leisurely evening, doing what I don't know!
Talk to you tomorrow.
