Replaced alternator belt. Spent time in Wild Horse Casino and got a late start at 10:35.
Shortly after getting on road, we climbed Cabbage Hill which is a 6% grade with a 2,300 ft change in elevation to a summit at 3,753 ft. Went up in S at 40 mph with no problems. I-84 topped out at 4193 ft. when it went over the Blue Mountains. There were numerous long 6% climbs and descents. One very long traffic diversion due to road construction.
Arrived in Boise, ID in time for dinner at the Cracker Barrel which at 450 miles is the closest one to home.
Picked up another alternator belt at O’Reily’s as a spare.
Continued on to Flying J in Twin Falls, ID.
Mileage – 353
Oil Consumption – VR-1 20-50 – 450 miles
Vapor Lock – None
Highest Temperature – 91F in Boise
