Rick, Sounds like a great trip so far!! Although I must correct you. It
is "Devil's Tower" - not Table. You should have considered going west
from Sheridan - up over the Big Horns - Down to Greybull and West to Cody
and Yellowstone. Much more scenic than driving across Montana (IMHO) The
state of WY being my old stomping grounds I could have given a few
insights if I had seen where you were going soon enough. On the return
trip might I suggest Rocky Mountain National Park as you go through
Colorado. From Grand Junction you can drive to the West (or is it south)
entrance and drive over the Longest Paved Road above timberline in the
world. About 12-13,000 feet. Simply breathtaking!!
