Day 7

I90 west to Buffalo, WY and onto 16 through the Bighorn National Forest. What a magnificent ride and change of altitude. We topped out at almost 9700 ft.

What was the name of the place you had the sandwich at Paul? If you get a chance on the way home take the other route that takes you to Sheridan via Shell Canyon out of Greybull.

We had lunch at the Ten Sleep Saloon in Ten Sleep, WY. There’s only one road that runs through the middle of town. It’s a real cowboy saloon. We had a talk with the owner and she told us they have a lot of hard working ranchers and cowboys that need a good meal.

Day 8

Finally made it to Yellowstone. I am in awe at the size and beauty of the park. We entered through the east entrance and it is over 100 miles just to get to Old Faithful. We only covered about 1/3 of the grand loop. We’ll be back for more. Below are just some of the pictures I took.

I’m as green (with envy) as the grasses in your pics. Beautiful and hopefully the weather continues in your favor.

Day 9

Today we road Beartooth Pass out of Red Lodge, MT. Then followed the route into Cooke City, MT. Beartooth is amazing. It usually closed after October 15 and doesn’t reopen until the Friday after Memoral Day. Top of Beartooth was 10949 ft. A little chilly there.

After lunch in Cooke City we headed out on the one and only road back toward Beartooth. The only turnoff was for Chief Joseph Scenic Parkway toward Cody, WY. This is a fantastic and scenic road. Only tops out a little over 8000 ft, but the view are phenomenal.
