Big Horn Canyon National Recreation Area

Fence

Big Horn Canyon National Recreation Area - We found this old, deserted settlers ranch in Big Horn National Recreation Area. It was cool to see how people used to live on their own.

Wild Horses

Big Horn Canyon National Recreation Area - A wild mustang. I wish that I was able to capture a better image of him. This was the coolest sight that we saw today and only the second time that I've ever seen a wild mustang. In 2002, I caught a glimpse of a few running over a hill in Theodore Roosevelt National Park.

Horseshoe Bend

Big Horn Canyon National Recreation Area - Nothing but big sky and a big canyon. If you wanted solitude, this fits the bill. We know this would be one of the last jaw dropping views that we get before we head across the great plains back to Indiana so we took the time to enjoy it.

Horseshoe Bend

Big Horn Canyon National Recreation Area - Wyoming is wide open country with a vast diversity in terrain. I could not imagine being a early explorer how had to find a way across this river. I've also never see river water this color before.

Horseshoe Bend

Big Horn Canyon National Recreation Area - This was the last stop along the way home on our 2 week trip of the American west. This is Horseshoe Bend in Bin Horn Canyon National Recreation Area in Wyoming. I've passed the road to this place several times, but we were doing good on time and decided to do one last extra trip. Not a sole in sight for most of the few hours that we spent here.
