Continued through Walla Walla, Washington and into Idaho at Clarkston & Lewiston. Seem to be still following Lewis and Clark's trail, but in reverse!!
Beyond Lewiston Highway 12 becomes very twisty and mountainous as it follows the Clearwater river.
I stopped at a campsite as I was leaving Orofino, (which I almost missed it was so small). Only cost $10 and camped on the bank of the river.
My big surprise as I unpacked my tent was leaking water in the boot of the car!! The ice I bought and put in the cool bag I dragged from the UK leaked all over the boot floor and got my back pack soaking wet!! I had three new books in the back pack and they were in a real damp state. Plus all my documents and passports were wet. Had everything laid out inside the car to dry out. Was a bit worried that all this stuff was on display, but my camp site was really quiet.
Some pix of the Clearwater river at various spots I stopped at before I camped for the night
Classy campsite, you do not want to imagine the toilets or showers!! Very basic
View from my tent, not bad!! Very quiet and no phone or radio reception
