I just got back from a trip through some of the most Amazing country I have ever seen in my life. Posting on the Huddle, I have become one who is not easily amazed. As I get a chance, I'm going to write about it here if I get time. I think it's something everyone should see. I probably wouldn't have had the opportunity save the fact that my company sent me to Billings Montana for a business convention (which was nothing more than 4 days of drunken debauchery, but thats another story.) Click here for all the pictures of the trip! After the 4 day convention, my group rented a mini-van and went south to Yellowstone through the Beartooth Pass. According to an 'educational sign' by the roadside, the Beartooth Pass goes through and over the Beartooth Plateau. Some of the oldest 'visible' rocks on earth are up there. I guess it's a big deal when you don't have to dig to see the old rocks. The Beartooth took us in to the Rocky Mountains. I was impressed by how enormous the Rocky Mountains are. I lived in Wilkesboro, and still have family that lives there. I used to consider that "the mountains." I'm not sure that I can anymore. We headed into the pass and kept winding up the mountain side. The Rockies completely destroyed my sense of perception. Not only were the mountains huge, but they were ridiculously far away and huge. It was one continuous optical illusion. We got to the top and found the Beartooth Plateau, miles and miles of (what appeared to be much like) pasture land 2 miles high on top of the Rockies. It was amazing. Traveling down the beartooth, we looped south into Wyoming, but back north into Montana one last time, to Cooke City. We ate two great meals there, and then went on into Yellowstone. Yellowstone is the most awesome place I have been so far in my life. The pictures do NOT do it justice. After visiting Yellowstone, we went south into Teton National Park. It was awesome all over again, some of the most enormous mountains I could have ever imagined. Pronghorn were EVERYwhere! We ended our trip by flying home out of Jackson Hole, Wyoming. It's a trip I will never forget, and I hope you find the pictures enjoyable. 0 Comments | My Network Social Actions My Communities
