Bear Lodge

You probably know this place as Devil's Tower. The Native American tribes of the region call it Bear Lodge and a few other names. It's the busiest National Park site we've been to yet, mostly filled with people zipping in on their way to somewhere else. 

After a six hour drive across Wyoming on Wednesday, we got the last campsite in the park because we stopped to talk to the camp host on the way in, and he gave us directions on which loop to drive to get the spot. There were others behind us not so fortunate, and there was even a guy in front of us whose Andretti like driving meant he missed the spot. We think we'll stay a few days since there is great bird watching, nice hiking, an amusing prairie dog village, and Devil's Tower provides one heck of a backdrop!
