85 days and counting...
This will be my 1st visit to this area, i'm looking forward to this. This is a trip we had planned last year for my son's HS Graduation but had to cancel. Heading out with 4 vehicles this trip, and plan to cover alot of ground so were opting for NF Cabins instead of camping. Hope we dont regret that decision.
The 1st cabin were hitting is outside Dillon, we wanted to check out some of the Bitterroots and eastern ID. We'll be coming up through the Tetons on the way out. We arrive in Laramie WY area on 9/16. We start our drive into the area on the morning of 9/17 through the Tetons and towards Dillon at a leisurely pace. We then have 5 days in Horse Prarie Guard Station cabin within Beaverhead NF.

Morning of 9/21 we head towards Bozeman enroute for our second Cabin. This cabin is Window Rock and we have it booked for 9/21 through 9/24. You'll notice we have both cabins booked for the 21st...that gives us some flexibility.

Plans are for some fly fishing, scenic horseback tour,ghost towning, and backcountry exploring. Love to find some old style saloons :cheers: as well.
Morning of 9/25 we head east towards Wall, SD for the Badlands where we will spend the 26th on a very nice scenic two track road we found in Buffalo Gap when we visited in 05.
Head back to Philly area on 9/27, arrive on 29th.
My bud and i have been out west a few times. I'v been to Colorado and the Badlands once. My bud has also been to Yellowstone area. My son and my buds BIL will also be coming along on this trip and have never been out west.
I'll update this thread as the trip approaches and will post pics from the road.
