Day Riding NAFO

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

The End.
