March 21, Friday, Day 15: Emory Pass

Another hard day riding.  From 6000 feet to 8228 at Emory Pass and then to this tiny town of Kingston.  It's all downhill now to Florida!  Well, not quite, but this is the highest elevation on the tour.



This is the Chino copper open pit mine, only part of it.  Started in1920, it operates 365 days a year.


Our lodging for the night is, shall we say, rustic. More than that, you don't want to know. Only game in town.  They are cooking us a turkey dinner and a full breakfast.

  1. Love the picture of the Chino Copper Mine, beautiful! Sounds like things are going well and you are keeping up your sense of humor........... All down hill to Florida sounds good, I can tell you a story about that when you return ;-)
    Keep up the good work.
