Cattle country.

Pulling into White Sulpher Springs for gas and air. We have a bit of pavement to travel today.

South of White Sulpher Springs, looking east towards the Big Belt Mountains.

Still continuing our treck south....

Looking east towards the Bridger Range.

Passing through Livingstone.

Mountains are getting a bit bigger... Looking west to the Absaroka Range.

Still heading south.

...


Cutting through the northen tip of Yellow Stone National Park.

Lots of Buffalo. And lots of tourists who like to stop in the middle of the road, blocking traffic, to view wildlife.

Toughest obstacle for the day...

...


Coming into Lamar Valley.

While passing through Lamar Valley, we saw a bunch of people set up along side the highway in hopes of spotting some of the Wolfs that hang out there. Sean boland stuck his head out the window and mad Bear growling type noises.

Almost out of Yellowstone...

Had to stop for a group shot.

Passing through Cook City.

In the Absaroka-Beartooth Range looking for camp.

Rugged, beautiful, remote and Grizzly infested range.

P.s; Just had a oh f-yeah moment while pondering next years run

We had a little meeting about how to seat up camp, knowing we were in Grizzly country when a guy came up (only place cell phones worked) and told us there was a grizzly den a few houndred yards below the camp. some more talk between the group and we decided to head back to town and at least have dinner (there was no way we were going to be cooking in camp) and go from there.

Sean Boland leads the group back to town.

Told you there were Grizzly's in the mountains. this one couldnt handle his Moose Drool Brown Ale.

We left Cook City and the crappy Prospector Hotel and continued on, slowley but surely coming out of Grizzly country. Here we pass by the Cathedral Cliffs.

We made a quik stop at Dead Indian Pass (8060) to take in the views. Kid Curry and some of the Wild Bunch passed by this way in route to Hole in the Wall

More fine country.

Last stop for gas in Lovell before entering the Big Horn Mountains.

Sean Boland and the Big Horn Mountains of in the distance.

Passing by the Big Horn Lake. Looking South.

Looking North.

Starting the climb into the Big Horns.

 

[bh4rnnr]

...

We opted for the older highway for the climb into the Big Horns. Signs warned of extreme wash outs....

Starting the climb up.

We stopped to check out some water falls close by. Yep, the water be cold!

 

[bh4rnnr]

...


Good times.

Ahh the Big Horn Mountains. No Grizzly's in this range!

Daniel. We were hiking to check out the Medicine Wheel National Historic Landmark.

Whose Permission do you think you need? Did you take these photos?

Whose Permission do you think you need? Did you take these photos?

Just was figuring that it being a sacred Native American site, I should maybe not be posting them all over the internet.

understood. Its not a permission issue, its a publicity issue. This site is on all the maps and in the guidebook which is how we found it, so while its still your personal decision, I don't think you would be doing anything inappropriate.
