Le Sigh (4.00 / 2)
Where can I find this street NN?

I've an acute longing for the Bighorn Mountains now. I've seen my share of mountain ranges, but Bighorn is a very very special place to me. Mountain folding cutesy style.

The conditions when we drove through were possibly as ideal as can be. The sun slanting low, the sky turning from blue to copper and the summer colours fought for attention. At the side of the road, two cowboys on horseback were herding sheep, and a dog yipping in the distance.

And that was years before Brokeback Mountain appeared.

Head north out of Utah toward Jackson Hole.  Might look a little different right now, I'd wait until May at least.

The Bighorns are a wonderful range, first time I saw them my Dad and I were heading out from Indiana to my assigned base in California.  Took the northern route and, being a naive flatlander, I ended up nearly running out of gas so I had to stop partway through the bighorns at a closed gas station and we spent the night in the car.  Nearly froze, but in the morning i was awed by the beauty of the place.  I particularly like the approach when heading east, suddenly there is this magnificent range that just towers to the sky.

Damn, now I got the itch too.  Here is a little taste of the Snake to get us both through the day:
