The last time I was in WY was about 30 years ago - what a BEAUTIFUL state!
At that time we arrived in Cheyenne, and went to Grand Teton& Yellowstone NP, saw Devil's Tower and Mt. Rushmore, and I ate my first buffalo burger! I have VERY, VERY fond memories of the trip.
I want to expose my son to the greatness of the West, so we are planning a trip next June to the following places, and I would greatly appreciate alternate destinationsuggestions and OC advice:
Day 1 - Fly intoRapid City, IA (late in day)
Day 2 - Mt Rushmore (hiking?)
Day 3 - Deadwood (see bison?)
Day 4 - Devil's Tower (hiking?)
Day 5 - Sheridan
Day 6 - Cody
Day 7, 8 & 9 - Yellowstone (besides Old Faithful & the Falls - activity suggestions?)
Day 10 & 11 - Grand Teton (maybe a raft trip - other activity suggestions?)
Day 12 - Jackson
Day 13 - fly out of Jackson
There are two things I would love to do, but I'm not sure if there is the time: 1) see the Little Big Horn Battlefield, and 2) get to Casper for the Trail Museum and Guernsey to see the wagon wheel tracks (are there other places to see them?).
I would *greatly* appreciate suggestions/alternative destinations, andanything you think Ishould know about OCing in WY.
I've read over the past year's worth of WYthreads, and it sure seems like an OC paradise outside of Cheyenne and Jackson, but would appreciate advice otherwise.
If it can be arranged, I would love to meet one or more of you WY OCers.
Thank very muchfor any help and advice offered.
