Barb - We used Highway 16 to travel to Greybull - the east-to-west routes all have sufficient grade, but this one has the least! Details from Ed to follow. We chose to stay 2 nights at the Greybull KOA, one of the nicer KOAs we've seen. We took a drive in the early evening to Red Gulch Dinosaur Tracksite (photo of a track shown above) and decided to include it in the next day's longer drive so we could be there in daylight.
Ed - Leaving Buffalo was easy, getting the 65 miles over the mountain pass was more challenging. The 65-mile trip took over 2 hours and we traveled at speeds from 20 mph to 35 mph going uphill. On the downhill side, we encountered sharp turns and steep downhill grades - both of which kept our speed to a minimum. Once over the mountain, the traveling was easier and we rolled along at 65 mph. However, it is a very pretty drive - especially if you do not need to watch the road so carefully.
