Wednesday, July 26th: I meet Teresa at 9 AM - a little later today as we have a shorter (albeit uphill!) day today at Little Dipper and we wave farewell to Frauke. As we are in kind of a cruisy mode today, we opt to stop in Beaverdell and grab a coffee - you’ve just got to check out the Red Rock Garage.

Within minutes a couple pass us moving along at a good pace carrying panniers - they look too happy to stop so we all wave say good morning and carry on. We make it all of about 3 kilometres before the first photo stop - a stunning view out over the valley - not far away further north lies Big White - the local ski area - now also open during the summer months with a massive mountain bike range. Just as we are about to set off - hey! there’s someone
