Day 56: Wednesday, July 10, 2013

Our plan for the day was to ride the bus up to the Polychrome Overlook and take a hike. When we awoke to a steady rain we decided to wait to see if it would clear up. The rain continued all day so we took a couple of short hikes around the campground instead.

We took a walk out to the Teklanika River in the rain

The rain finally let up a little later in the afternoon so we spent the rest of the day relaxing by the campfire.

Now this is the kind of view I like out our back window
