At 9:30 this
morning it was already 91 degrees in Buffalo, WY. But, there is still snow on
the Big Horn Mountains.
I didn’t
take pictures as we were going through the mountains today. I had already documented the most scenic
parts when we came through in the Jeep.
On the other
side of the mountains the land looks more like desert, very dry. Going through this area we did see several
working oil wells.
Most crops
and hay are irrigated. Beets seem to be
the major crop. Corn is quite a bit
behind what we have seen in Indiana and Nebraska.
On this 30
mile stretch of road we saw one tractor, one pickup truck sitting at a turnout
and one more pickup just as we turned off of this road.
Coming into
Cody the scenery gets better.
Coming into
Buffalo Bill State Park
We had to go
through three tunnels, none of them had signs indicating clearance
measurements. There was plenty of room,
but we would have been more confident going into them if it had been posted.
More scenery
coming through the park. We’ll be coming
back Monday to check this out a little closer. Tomorrow we have to do some "adult" stuff like getting groceries, prescriptions, washing the Jeep and cooking.
