June 16-Devil’s Tower, WY

We spent a good deal of the day on the road but the first part of the day was on the beautiful Bighorn Scenic Byway. We were excited to see 3 male Elk along the drive, what a thrill. The scenery was breathtaking. We stopped along the way and had a sandwich wrap for lunch, quickly made in the trailer and eaten on the road. Soon after that we were on the freeway heading to Devil’s Tower arriving just after 4pm. There is a regular Prairie Dog City here! It was a surprise to see two other Casita’s here in the campground! We chatted briefly with them and they joked it was an informal Casita gathering. After a quick campsite setup we headed up to the tower to do the Tower Walk. It was about 1.5 miles and it felt good to walk after being in the van all day. The National Park campsites here are only $12. ($6. senior) and there are only toilet facilities, but such a nice price. They even have a stack of firewood where you can help yourself!
