June 11th, 6:00+ PM Odometer: ?
At a place called Garberville off Rt 101. At this point, 101 has been mostly freeway with only a couple miles of paralleling roadway.
Surprising how the climate can change just a few miles from the ocean when there are mountains in the way! From low 50s and fog to low 80s and hot sun is quite a switch and both make for hard riding. The transition zone was comfortable but all uphill, so distance today hasn't been very good. Guess I can camp in the Humbolt Redwoods tonight and maybe make it to Redwood Natl park the day after, if I don't spend too much time in Eureka. Guess I should be moving on.
At camp, odometer: 1009.6
