Thursday I road with the Seattle crew to Castlegar - well sort of and you can read that post here.

Here is one last photo of the North Crashcades Hwy. This one is from August 2011.

While at NAFO I went on two rides with Pablo, Eddie and his wife Becky.

Friday we went to Halcyon Hot Springs a 200 mile up and back from Castlegar.

Having road the BC Hotsprings route a few years prior I became the default tour guide. Halcyon is my favorite Hotsprings because you can float around in circle on two noodles.

Here is a photo of the facility.

In the far pool there is an small island and the water is circulates counter clockwise. By laying on a noodle wrapped under the legs and shoulder you can float around in circles. Pure bliss.

Here is a photo of moi floating around......

While take a photo of me Pablo took a self portrait.

We nearly had the whole place to ourselves. No other NAFO riders where there.

On Sunday the weather forecast was not so good but that did not deter us from getting out again. We headed to Hwy 31A and to Ainsworth Hotspring. On Sunday the default tour guide stopped a bit more and we got some photos.

The Dam right outside Castlegar.

Scenic photos along Hwy 6 and 31A.

The contrast between the grey sky and green hillsides gave the lakes a lead color quality.

In the next NAFO ride report MEM has a pyramid of cups at her door and Fontanaman rides off to finish off Dam Tour.

The End.
