The Gang of Three is Heading West (cont. V)

 

Sunday, June 26

Yesterday the drive to Greybull was not difficult but still long. We had the Bighorn Mountain Range in front uf us and the Avalanche had to climb to an elevation of 9’666 feet up to the Powder River Pass. Not a problem for the 8,1l engine, but pulling 8’000# up there means a lot of gasoline, even at low speed. Then of course all the way down again into a large plain towards Greybull,  just to do the same thing again tomorrow,but this time in the Rockies to get to the Yellowstone Geyser Basin. 

But the scenry was again spectacular, there is still a lot of snow in this mountains and the boys had some fun on the pass.

The arrival at the Greybull KOA was pleasant, a Dutch couple owns the place and they have it completely remodeled and modernized in the last seven years. This was again the KOA feeling I like and I’m used to.

The Bighorn Mountain Range, we are getting closer to the Rockies

 

At that altitude we changed our attitude

 

And run barefoot in the snow

 

 

 

 

Not to warm here

 

The descent reveals some breathtaking scenery

 

 

Everything updated and very modern, concrete sites plus a professional kitchen. They want to sell in the next 3 to 5 years....

 

Dinner was almost ready....

 

And no messing around with a wood fire....
