"Why didn't you guys take the Stillwater Plateau?" Yeah the weather prevented us from heading up to the plateau. I am not sure if snow exists on the plateau. It's very windy in this area and the snow is probably blown off. Dropping into the drainage from the plateau would've been difficul...

I wish it was like Hawley

T, Yeah, much worse! It's makes Hawley look like a walk in the park. Hawley was bad because the trees were sooo tight, but add a ton of deadfall and you'll get close to what Flood was like. The only unanswered question is what it is like during the Winter. There is a slight chance that in ideal cond...

Sacajawea

I'm not sure if this qualifies as the Greater Yellowstone Area, but what the hay! Kris Ericson and myself went up to Sacajawea this past Saturday (6/11). The road was closed around the 3 mile marker.
