Tuesday April 5: Yarnell to Prescott

Yesterday I had the wind at my back most of the way. It helped going up the Yarnell Pass. And, by the way, this pass was just as steep and long as anything I saw last year in Colorado.

Well, today it was in my face until it moderated around noon.

Started with a long coast out of Yarnell. If it hadn't been windy, I would have been flying. Then came the 12 mi curvey climb out of the valley up to Prescott. After reaching 6000 feet the road undulated 6 or 8 times. Finally a long coast into Prescott
