overnight to Slate Peak WA

I read that there was a good chance of seeing Aurora Borealis last night so I rode out to Slate Peak, the highest drivable point in Washington state at 7200 feet. Figured it would be a good trip for the 650. I took highway 20 most of the way. Didn't get to see the lights, probably because the moon was so bright. Still was a good trip, thought id share. -Vic
