It took two long days of driving---we’d averaged about 6 hours every day for the past two days- and we had one more day left to get to some kind of civilization (if you can call 500,000 bikers "civilization). On the road from Idaho through Wyoming, we tracked the Mormon Trail. We stopped at the site of the Martin Handcart Company and the LDS Visitor Center. Given the direct history of John’s Spencer relatives in the debaucle, it was particularly interesting to take the tour of the visitors center and hear the story of the handcart companies. And, it did help to break up a long day of driving. When we finally pulled into our campground, we were still in the middle of nowhere Wyoming.
