Another stop before the Grand

There were many cyclists riding through the long roads of Wyoming, like this dude in my rear view mirror



Shortly after Dubois, it started drizzling. As I drove by a hitch hiker, I contemplated giving the guy a lift for a moment. He turned out to be a Continental Divide Trail Through Hiker named John from Durango (trail name: slipkid).

The road I was on (US 287/26) already turned into gravel as it was undergoing construction. John needed to head off on some other unpaved road towards Brooks Lake. I dropped him off near the Brooks Lake Lodge, which is on the CDT trail (?)

If I hadn't picked up John, I would have never seen the many bluffs tucked away from the road, like this one:
