Whoop Wyoming

Day 4, Saturday June 20 , 2015
Start 43-163WT, creek near the Wyoming-Colorado border, mile 1507
End 01-128WT creek on Stock Driveway, mile 1528.4

The journey continues up and down a 4WD road, named Wyoming Trail, surrounded by forest on all sides without views.
In a few miles is the Wyoming border sign. A notation on my map reports that it is traditional to let out a WHOOP when reaching the border, and I yelled loud in celebration.

Go For It

Day 2, Thursday June 18, 2015
Start near Buffalo Pass, Summit Lake Campground, mile 1469.7
End 042-155XL start of trail to North Lake, mile 1490.5

I have decided to keep on hiking though the snow. My plan is to hike for a day and see if I can make sixteen miles. If not, then return to Buffalo Pass and hike the 13 mile forest road straight to Steamboat Springs, and restart the trip some other time.
Tho weather looks good, probably no rain for a couple of days. I will be hiking at high elevation today, 12500, and do not want to deal with rain and snow at the same time.
