The day starts with a climb out of the valley to the plateau above. One the way up the climb the terrain reminds me of Wyoming to some extent but not really. Once out of the valley it was all flat, fields and some cattle, but with headwinds. There are very few communities along the way. I needed to make a short detour into the town of Delia to get something to drink. There was one gas station in this town and one very small general store that sold cold drinks. That is all I needed.
It was going to be a short day because there was not much further east from here. So I stopped in Hanna to get cooled off and a good night of sleep.
