Pierce Lake was out of the way, but totally with it. We climbed out of the Dworshak pit of dispair (the curvy step road) without incident. We stopped in Moscow, Idaho and had breakfast and shopped at their downtown market for a couple of girl souvenirs and fresh bread and stinky cheese. We even made it down the cussing dirt road that Google took us on… We still got to piece lake before late lunch. The lake was beautiful, like lake Jocassi beautiful. Clear and full of beach goers. The campground was shady and updated. They also had a dog beach. We have made it to Canada and have the Rockies in our view.
