A bunch of us rode it as part of Bicycle Idaho last summer. I think it's
an extraordinary facility for any type of bicycle, but a recumbent works
great on it. We started in Wallace and rode to Harrison for the night's
camp, and then Diane and I rode to Plummer and back. I think we covered
90% of its length.

Bicycle Idaho is going back on roughly the same route this year:

can- it may already be sold out.

Laural Engeman and Bob Porter rode it and the Route of the Hiawatha in May
of last year. They saw moose on the trail.
