Day 15, Friday, 7 June, Jackson to Dubois

Today's trip contained four pieces. First, we had breakfast and replaced a tube in Louis's front tire. This involved a little riding around town. Then we rode out of Jackson and through Teton National Park. At Moran, we turned right and stated to climb. Finally, we reached the peak and had a nice descent into Dubois. We rode 95.25 miles, the last 52.13 of which we covered at 13.9 mph.

Drew, Mark, Clayton, and Kyle invited us to join them for free camping at the Lutheran Church. We paid $0.50 per minute for a shower at the laundromat. I spent $1.00.

Here is a map of our general route: http://www.mapmyride.com/routes/view/247547989. It shows that our starting, stopping, and maximum elevations were 6,154 ft., 6,928 ft., and 9,606 ft. We climbed 4,357 vertical feet and had 1 class-2 climb, 1 class-3 climb, 1-class-4 climb, and 2 class-5 climbs.
