      Yes it does... My guess is that we had a few folks that just loved the adventure and then we probably had a few that were wondering.... "What did Elgin get us in to?" :-) Thanks for watching/commenting and glad your back. :-)

      The weather sure does change fast in the mountains. We can always count on rain. Thanks for checking out our fan trip. I see you have a new video out! Welcome back to TH-cam!!! I hope your brother is up and driving the trails soon.

    Fabulous views from Dry Head Vista. You covered some ground I felt familiar with from the late 80's, had two trips for a week camping at Big Ice Cave whilst doing volunteer work for the NFS. Also spent a week up at the Bainbridge Cabin but don't recall which mountain it is on, they were really good times!

      @@wyomingjeepers Southwest, north of Yellowstone a bit. Last year we discussed your coming up for a day trip to an old mine, but floods blew the bridge out in the backcountry...no scheduled rebuild at this time. 🫤 I have Elgin's email, however, and will send updates as I have them.

    • @wyomingjeepers
      @wyomingjeepers  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I do have your emails too... I just didn't put it together that your TH-cam name and your email name are different. Too bad about the bridge. Sometimes, you have to think the Forest Service is not too sad about roads closing down. At least here in this area, it seams that way.

    • @melissacook
      @melissacook 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      We hope to come up and take that drive with you when they rebuild the bridge. Please let us know when the canyon drive is accessible again. Thanks for watching and we hope you can make the next fan trip. Elgin and I were talking about where to go this morning. Thanks for watching!

    I'm heading to WY the first half of June. Is that too early? Will the high mountain passes still be closed? What's the best way to get info on closures?

    • @wyomingjeepers
      @wyomingjeepers  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The first of June is fine in the mountains for the lower roads. The higher ones like the trips we took in Cooke City are the middle of June. Sunlight Basin is the middle of July. The Pryors (this video) is the middle of June. The best way to find out is go to the Forest Service and search for MVUM (Motor Vehicle Use Maps) for the area you are looking for. The GAIA Overland layer in GAIA GPS will tell you open dates as well. However, the best option is the Forrest Service MVUM. The book we are putting out shortly of all of our trails we put on TH-cam will have open dates as well.

      June is typically safe for exploring but you never know. It is May 24 and the mountains just had more snow this week. Check the state road conditions for details on the main roads. Will you be in our area?

      @@melissacook I'm not sure where all we will end up. We usually don't do much planning. Normally we just explore mountain backroads until we find an epic spot and then camp there and repeat the next day. Part of the excitement is not knowing where you're going to spend the night until your head hits the pillow.

      @@explorationoverdrive9137 That sounds like the life. I have learned to plan a little in advance if I need a hotel room because we have had to drive half the night or more if we haven't but with a tent, that's not a problem - unless it rains. 🙂
