Default Beartooth part II

Kim and I made it to Cody Friday afternoon around 4, got settled in the room and then it clouded up and poured for about an hour.

Saturday we hit the road just before 8 am and made it back to the motel in Cody around 6 pm 326 miles. We entered the park at the East entrance, went to Yellowstone Falls then road to Red Lodge. From RL we went back up Bears Tooth and took Chief Joseph - Sunlight Basin back to Cody. Beautiful day but quite strong winds on top. Traffic wasn't bad for Yellowstone.

Bikes performed flawlessly and I know this Rushmore is the best bike I've owned.

Tried to post the link to Street tools but it's not working The link will not work on my Lap top but does on my Iphone and Ipad?

Will see what I can do later

Did you run into ant road construction on Chief Joseph Hiway? It sounds like you had a nice ride there. I hope I get to make that run this year.

Vernal,

I just clicked the link and watched the super cool ride you took with tons of really great pictures. The link worked fine on my Laptop - so please shoot me an email and I'll do what I can to assist in making sure it runs on yours as well.

Again - amazing ride - and awesome photos.

Thanks for Sharing,

Heavymetalthunder:
My wife and I headed up Chief Joseph's on Monday the 20th, they where doing some rock wall chipping maybe 10 miles up the Chief off of 72. FYI

I'm in Rock Springs tonight headed around the Flaming Gorge tomorrow, not to far from you Vernal!

Your going to have a pretty ride, at least the south end Check out the Dam and Red Canyon Overlook.

High today in Vernal is supposed to hit 94.

Have a great ride!
