I first went down this road in 1968 when my mom was driving us 3 kids from Minneapolis to Seattle and this route was recommended by someone. The whole story of that evening and night is one thing I will never forget, the highpoint seeing the medicine wheel sign and making visiting it my first "bucket list" item. I made it in '94.

The Bighorn Mountains are certainly not “underrated” they are being loved to death. The backcountry trails are some of the most popular backpacking spots for midwesterners. They are very highly rated and loved mountains.

The better view is from the launch point at sand turn. They just replaced a bunch of that handrail on Monday 8-17-20, because a truck needed to stop and used the rail to slow himself down. That is where they launch hang gliders. There is a video of launches on youtube. That last pull out is where you can overlook fallen city. The rock on your right when it comes to a point at the top of the hill is Steamboat rock. That is the formation on the right when your at the last pullout with the placards about aspen.

Russ I know you have planned your trip but just want to tell you about what became our favorite way into the park. Just North of Cody you can pick up the Chief Joseph scenic byway or like Grandpa called it Dead Indian pass. Takes you through the Gallatin & Shoshone National forests and goes to Cooke City Montana which is basically the NE entrance to the park just to the west. East of Cooke City to Red Lodge is the Beartooth highway. Charles Kuralt called that the most beautiful drive in America. Car & driver calls it one of the most dangerous. Never got to take the trip to Red Lodge but it's on my bucket list. Campers were everywhere in the national forest.
