A somewhat impromptu tic-off-the-bucket-list trip to Wyoming took us to the iconic National Park highlight spots of the Grand Tetons
and Yellowstone.
But the Crowds and the tight parking and the RVs and the tour buses and waiting patiently for my turn through the mobs to snap the required photo ops,
and all the buffalo jams (of which I was a participant at our first 3 or 4... or 12 bison sightings)
wasn't quite the nature inspired wide open space I had always imagined that part of the country to be.
So we did what we do,
rented an off road machine (a little less demanding than a dirt bike),
picked up a trail map and some supplies and headed out deep into Teton
National Forest recreation area.
And found what we were looking for.
Never once paying attention to any Dead End or Caution Ahead sign in any way.
There simply is too much to experience off the beaten path and down the side roads.
We crossed paths with a group of campers and a few fishermen but other than that felt like the entire place was put there just for us.
Here's a little action video we had fun making.
Obviously we didn't run off any cliffs!
