At a Glance

Now, tonight...we have a really big shew. One of my favorite Destination Highways, DH12, is with us. (Applause). Its excellent Pavement is going to take you over some well-distributed, if somewhat blind, curves, through the fields and forests of Sullivan Creek. As always, appearing with ‘12 is Sullivan Lake itself, nestled in its base of glaciated mountains, looking more beautiful than ever as the highway runs all the way along its scenic western shoreline. It’ll be a short but great performance before our guest brings you back to the Pend Oreille River on the less frequent, more mellow corners of its southern half. Remember to tune in next week, when the top half of Elvis will be here. But before that, for all you kids out there on your Kawasaki ZX-6R’s, the Rolling Stones will sing their No.1 hit: “Let’s Spend Some Time On DH12 Together.”
 

 


 

Riders Reviews:
"On the way home to Spokane from an overnight trip to Kimberly BC, we made a point of taking a detour out to Sullivan Lake after reading the DH review. Sure glad we did! The beautiful scenery is equaled by the twisty, winding road (at least on the northern stretch). It's a short jaunt and over too soon, but it's worth every minute you spend on it. Now if I could only figure out a way to buy some waterfront property on the lake from the National Park folks...MAN, what a beautiful lake they have tucked away back there!!"--Curtis Trackwell curtistrackwell@msn.com
