Woke up ready to get day started with brief snack of Italian sub and night before shower I was more than ready. Got myself some gas I find if always at least close to full I should be groovy headed to my greatest disappointment of trip and that would be Yellowstone. Great views great geysers…

Campsite at Grand Teton as I said is GRAND. Hikes great also. That being said 10:50 I awoke to the sounds of giggles and yammering from several young women. Annoying yes echoing throughout camp. Since awake of course it became pee o’clock. Did my business with several kids in restroom for nothing nefarious all were…

Middle of night it started raining and getting blustery at campsite. My car camping/sleeping needed a test drive so packed up my tent and slept in ecosport turned out to be a great idea. While not looking closer at weather not so much. And then 4am came I woke eagerly to get on to road…

Woke up with more of same as I got while sleeping. Today was wake up get moving as camp real good and real cheap, 15 bucks cheap. It was 1st come. Not a hiking kinda place although I did get 5 miles in along the water. Drive over groovy until not. Bout halfway through got…

Visitors center opens at 8. I was advised to show up early and since I sleep poorly no problem. When I arrived approximately 7:10 four people in line by opening close to a couple hundred. Considering only 20 per tour chances are strong many going home empty. It’s only bout 3/4 kilometer but also has…

It’s a moving day gotta get hike in early and hit the road. Great trail on way out of park perfect to stop and get 5 miles in. Now the fun really begins. I didn’t expect one of the more humorous parts to be on the road but I know zilch. It wasn’t a long…

Up early grabbed a gas station breakfast burrito this is 5 star and an absolute treat. Aftet it’s time to hit the trails. Here’s to the park folk cause without their signage I’m fairly certain many lost or at least me and that’s enough to worry about. Much of the hiking was as before, not…

What the poop is The Wall? I had no idea till my buddy Steve informed me. It’s called The Wall drug but that’s a huge understatement. It has its own exit , its own old west main street and although I have no evidence I’m fairly certain its own town. While a trifle isolated there…

Last post ended with goodnight and it’s ending extremely well. Before hiking my last for the day I went to local station to fill up for drive to badlands tomorrow. While not exactly barter gas(see Cabin in the Woods) it was as close as I’ve seen and it was groovy. Large sign on pumps said…

Good morning all woke up a trifle late by that I mean the sun almost up. Exceptionally tired. Eat gas station sandwich (on Naan!!!!) and went to nearby rest stop/trail head Down is easy it’s the up part(always near the end) that is your foil. Lovely and slightly alone. Not as much as I’d prefer…
