Taking the back roads on the high plains of Wyoming

Taking the back roads on the high plains of Wyoming is an adventure in the summer.  On many of the gravel roads, rain can wash them out in only one down pour so be careful.   Recommend you only drive these with a four wheel drive vehicles and have a few gallons of water with you.  Always let some one know what route you plan to take and when you come back.  Two auto exploring is even better especially if you have a tow chain/cable/line.

 

Many of the gravel/dirt roads in Wyoming are great roads to travel on.  Those on  state and federal campgrounds and private parks are often just fine.  However some of the other roads are more for small to medium ranch and pick-up trucks.

 The Desert is a beautiful place and yet it is also a dangerous place, drive slow and stop often to enjoy.

Count on getting at least one flat tire and prepare for two and you should be OK.  Test your jacks and make sure you can jack up your auto on sandy uneven ground.
