Big Horn Mountains WY

This is a picture of the pull out that we stopped at on the way down the Big Horn to Greybull. We needed a brake and so did the brakes on the truck. A chance for us to grab a snack and just enjoy the view, of course pictures do not show the real depth of the valley.

Big Horn Mountains WY


Out of Sheridan WY to Yellowstone over the Big Horn Mountains. This is really a nice drive lots of switch backs going up and you cross over at approx. 9,000 ft. This is one of the local critters we were able to see at the pass. Just glad that he was not in the road. The trip down the western side was grand, but did have to stop and let the brakes on the truck and trailer cool down we had quite the grade to go down.

Devils Tower

Yes for all of you who remember "Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind" this is the place. Really something to see first National Monument. From here we are on our way to Sheridan WY.

Mount Rushmore

Made it to Mount Rushmore (aka Men on the Mountain). Must say it is very impressive. The day we were there it was very windy so much so that about the only way you could take pictures was with a tripod.

Bad Lands

Yes just another reason that it's called the Bad Lands
