We finally escaped the smoky skies, but we traded them for torrential rain! While the change in weather wasn’t exactly what we had hoped for, we simply adjusted our route to avoid the downpour, mirroring the challenges of navigating around the smoke.
The unexpected delays added some extra time to our drive, but on the bright side, we were treated to some amazing wildlife sightings along the way, including a mama goat and her lamb putting on a show, and even a few bears and bison!




As we crossed the Great Divide, we were finally greeted by some sunshine. Here’s hoping for better weather and a chance to get back on track with our hiking adventures!
