South Pass City, WY to Rawlins, WY






















Well, to make a long story short, this section sucked. Well, not entirely, but it is really hard to come out of the most beautiful mountains you have ever seen with water abound, and walk into a desert. The land was beautiful, but we walked on sandy jeep roads primarily. The highlights of our day included spotting antelope and wild horses. We were actually approached by one stallion who troted back and forth in front of us. He didn't take his eyes off us until we were out of sight. The sunsets were beautiful. But, I would be lying if I said I wasn't thrilled to get to Rawlins and take a shower. Next we are off to Steamboat Springs, CO. That's right, this is the section that we meet our half way point! We can only hope, since we are not skiing in Colorado, that they have a indian summer and the snow stays away, just for the next 25 days or so. Wishful thinking, we know.
