Day 14 Saturday, June 20th Provo UT to Price UT 75 miles

Last night at route rap where we get our cue sheet (directions and warnings) we were told that there is allot of construction, dirt roads that we will have to ride and dangerous descents with just a narrow shoulder and lots of rumble strips. Started out with a group of about 9 then dwindled down to 5. Chris (from Ohio) and I made a quick stop then tryed to catch the others before our 6 mile climb up to Soldier's Summit. There was suppose to be a sag stop before the climb but we missed it. It turned out to be a blessing because we were able to desend on dry pavement and enjoy the scenery. Every body behind us got caught in a rain storm. We stopped in a town called Helper for lunch. The town gets its name because it needed and engine pulling and pushing the trains up over the summit, therfore the name "helper".
