Tours of Sundance Wyoming

We arrived here Thursday afternoon, tired from pulling the trailer up and down hills, attempting to keep up with traffic (Remember it is 75MPH out here), all in a cross wind.  The fuel cost of moving the trailer from Billings Montana to Sundance Wyoming, was 53 cents per mile.  All things combined, wind, hills, and speeds higher than 55-60MPH really drag the miles per gallon down.  On the up side, the trip doesn’t take as long.  Anne-Marie and I saw around 30 antelope along the trip, all scattered in small groups 1-4 along the highway, and hundreds of horses, but we couldn’t tell if they belonged to anyone or if they were truly wild.  Sundance Wyoming is located in the northeastern corner of the state, and our drive was mostly in grasslands, and for the most part it is still green for hundreds of miles.
 
When wintering in Tucson, Anne-Marie and I tour and hike with Steve Cox, who also stays at the same RV Park.  Wednesday when I was planning our stay in Sundance, I checked Steve’s blog, as he also is touring the west, and he had changed his location to Sundance Wyoming, we crossed paths again.  Today Steve, Anne-Marie and I are planning to tour the Devils Tower National Monument, and the Vore Buffalo Jump, tomorrow visiting the local museums in town, to find the history of the Sundance Kid.
