we can share a meal if not a creek. i'll be camping somedamnwhere. the
slide inn has shifted focus and now caters to wealthy republicans. g)

I'll be out there all of June, but will be back home by July. I'll leave plenty

i'll be interested in hearing your take on the conditions in june. i
remember one trip in july when runoff was still a problem on some
streams...sorry to hear you won't stiil be around. i'll no doubt
require a bit of stewardship in getting the camping thing down...esp.
the hot shower part. g

i'm flying in to salt lake city, renting a tiny car, and driving up.
any suggestions about the route based on your experience?

I would suggest I-80 to Rock Springs, then up US 191 either all the way to
Jackson and up through Grand Teton, or get off 191 at Farson and up through
Lander and Dubois. Both routes will take you through some nice scenery, the
route through Dubois being prettier but also longer. The fastest and shortest
way is up I-15 to Idaho Falls and from there to West Yellowstone.

From where? It's probably 3 hours from Jackson going through the park(s).

I don't go that way, but I'd guess about 5 hours going up through Idaho, maybe
8+ taking the scenic route.
