Warm and freshly showered, we headed east to pick up the trail after our detour around the wildfires.
A few hours into the ride, we arrived in Yellow Pine for fuel. Upon entering town, we first notice a “golf course” and further up the street an espresso bar. This town was not going to disappoint.
We grabbed lunch at the Yellow Pine Tavern and chatted with some of the locals. The town is home to a huge harmonica festival and jeep and small airplane clubs hold events here.
Before leaving town, we stopped in for some espresso and met some more interesting folks. One man spent 15 minutes listing all the dirt roads we should explore. I definitely want to make it back to Yellow Pine someday.
The next section of the trail was a steady climb to 9000′ and then a steady drop into Warren (which we drove through without noticing the town).
We arrived at The Burgdorf Hotsprings, checked into our cabin, lit a fire and settled in for a cold night.
