Definately short on the Freemont and Dome Rock Photos. I know I have some somewhere but definately not digital. I know there is some great bouldering in Cody as well. Is there any part of Wyoming that doesn't have climbing within about a hour?

Museum, I was belaying on the second pitch of Mccarthy's that was my buddy Reggie doing the hard work. Lee and Tony made short work on El Mat, Mr. Clean, Tulgey and Way Layed. Thanks for posting up. That must have been you guys on the southwest shoulder. Mike

Nice Museum-pieces!
A couple semesters I had early morning lectures and afternoon labs. I'd blast out to the range solo something and blast (36 hp VW) back mostly on time.
One semester I had Strategraphic Paleontology @ 9:30. Mike and I would catch a ride with Layne Kopishka and his HS pe class @6:00 am, in the yellow bus, climb a few hrs and make it to class on time, as long as I didn't stop in the union to buy coffee.

museum, that shot of elk mountain in winter is really nice, although reminds me a bit of some scary winter driving in that area. Have you eaten at the hotel?

Seriously.
Elk Mnt Hotel has a reputation of bringing in outstanding chefs...used to go for anniversaries, family brunches, etc. Some of the best meals I've eaten, anywhere. Haven't been in a couple years, so call ahead. You'll start to doubt me as you're heading into "town," but no foolin' you'll be glad you went.

Elk mtn is beautiful, but the Bane of I-80. I'm surprised they didn't put the interstate through Med Bow, closer access to Fornification crag, to boot!

the locals around Elk Mountain told the Hy Dept to build I-80 through Medicine Bow and not Elk Mtn because of the nasty weather, but the government in it's infinite wisdom ignored their advice.

I drove that section of road right after Xmas on a trip from Tahoe to Madison Wisc. Driving 20 mph on black ice with 80mph sideways ground bizzard. There were big rigs off the road about every 1/4 mile. I have never pumped so much adrenaline through my system continually. My little VW Rabbit was amazing, but from then on I always planned an alternate route in winter.
