Day 1 on the Mickelson Trail: Deadwood to Rochford

What a lovely day!!! We drove to Deadwood to let off three of us: Kim, Deb, and Leslie. Then the next three drove down to Rochford to ride towards us.

Kim, Deb, and Leslie rode all the hill climbing turns to arrive at each false summit to continue rolling on. The scenery was delightful with ponderosa pines, aspens, green fields, wild flowers, red wing black birds, and even a white tailed doe that jumped across the trail in front of Kim.

We met Tam, Barb and Paula when we were about 8 miles from our endpoint. We shared a lunch and hints on what to look for as we each continued in the direction we were heading.
