I give a detailed route description on this page if you are interested.
Starting off the tour bottle of whiskey
Our "modern" cabin at the Ten Sleep RV part - two thumbs up
Enjoying the morning light on the colorful hills
Rain the days prior to starting the tour brought some greasy spots to negotiate
Nowood "International" airport, I had trouble finding the FAA identifier
Lucky for us the light was not flashing...
We had lots of barren land to cross before coming to these hills
Cool erosion in the Wind river valley
Starting our climb up to the switch backs up to Fossil Hill
At the top of Fossil Hill
More lush forest on the east side near Cony mountain
The original mine that brought people to South Pass, sadly tours were done for the year
A stop at the small town of South Pass
South Pass city ghost town was worth the stop
One other BDR group and a guy hiking the CDT joined us for the night
Our cabin at Miner's delight, built in 1930 for the miners, go figure. Thank God for the heated blankets it got cold (35 degrees)
Up the hill to view the Atlantic City valley
We had dinner at the Mercantile and a few beverages to loosen us up for tomorrow
240 miles and not much of it was paved, love it!
