Spud Run: Day 5



Spud Run, Day 5: What a Day! (269 miles) Left Bozeman at 7AM in a light rain and headed to the Gardiner/NE entrance to Yellowstone. The rain quit before entering the park and we followed the road east to US 212 over Beartooth Pass into Red Lodge MT for lunch. Let me just say that the road through the park was perfect with vistas, buffalo and bears. Beartooth Pass leads one to the “Top of the World”. There were several area of road construction between the eastern border of the park and the summit but still all that dirt was a very small price to pay. From the summit to Red Lodge the road snakes out of the mountains, which defines the smile on very motorcyclist's face. We are now in Cody, WY for the night.
