Rode with Bob for a while then headed on by myself. Met a few folks along the way, some touring, some just enthusiasts. Climb out of Virginia City was steep for a ways. Great downhill into Ennis, then headwinds hit. Stopped in Cameron to use a bathroom and was denied. Should have just gone on there porch. Used a sign down the road. Not a tree on sight....
Then the storms came. Hung out at palisades campground bit left prematurely. Hit rain for two miles and found shelter in a rest area again. Finally made it to Driftwater Resort.
Day 21, Driftwater to Madison CG. 49 miles
Called the Old Faithful Inn, to see if the had any broom closets for cyclist. Nope, but a room for $400. Battled headwinds most of the day anyway. Bike camp had 5 other bikers in it. No one headed East on the TA however. Got cold in the evening. Entered Wyoming today!
Day 22, Madison CG to Colter Bay, 77 miles
Woke to some snow and cold this morning. This is June 21st, Summer! Rolled through Yellowstone and saw some geysers and animals. Over the continental divide three times today, only hailed on once. Wore tights and a jacket all day, 38 degrees on the divide. Left Yellowstone and into Grand Teton NP. Sun broke out for the first views of the Tetons. In Colter Bay tonight.
Awesome pics Bro!
