Big Horn Canyon, WY

Entering the Big Horn Mountains from the west is one of the steepest climbs I have encountered in North America. I remember 2nd gear low in my small motor home and wondering if it would make it. Everything smelled cooked upon reaching the top. The west part of the drive was desert, but upon the high plateau, the drive quickly became forested with mountain meadows and herds of elk for some 30 to 50 miles. The descent into Sheridan is dramatic.
