Fort Bridger, Wyo, next stop and a break.

On the way to Wyoming, we stopped at  a rest stop with a monument of Lincoln. The monument commemorates the Lincoln Highway, America’s first transcontinental highway. 

Some pictures as we continue west on I-80. 

The yellow is a form of clover, I think. Brightened up the roadside. 

Lots of rock bluffs along the way. 

Finally made it to Fort Bridger. We’ve stayed here at Fort Bridger several other times. They have large sites, very clean restrooms and laundry and friendly, helpful owners. 

This town boasts 345 residents, with mostly dirt (gravel) roads through the small town. 

Here’s their shopping plaza. 

To stretch our legs, we took a walk to their reservoir. The mountains in the distance (pic below) are the Uintas (pronounced (Yintas) the only east/west mountain range in the US. 

We decided to take a break and stay another night here in Fort Bridger so we could take a drive through the Flaming Gorge Canyon in Utah. Beautiful drive and we got in a couple hikes, one along the Sheep Creek and one along the rim of the Canyon. 

One of the views from the rim. 







Dinner tonight was Jambalaya foul packets. We eat quite well at the camper. 

Tomorrow we hope to get to Battle Mountain, Nevada.
