looking for Montana vacation tips

Oh come on, it's not that bad since the State of Montana widened the road. There is one spot, if you know where to look, you can still see the pavement roller that went off the road.
try driving the one lane dirt road on the other side.

You want it really bad? try going over it when it is closed, on a snowmobile and I think the winds were going somewhere around 55-60mph. We went over snow drifts that were 14' high. My snowmobile froze on me, we had to leave it til the next day.

I grew up down there so I know a bit about the "Pass".
You have to admit though the Grasshopper Glacier sure did a neat job forming that valley.

Oh if you drive it in the dark watch out for the moose. I about got one years ago in a car.

Thank you all, the info has been a great help. I knew I could count on Ranchers to the rescue. I think we have found a cabin near Cody, and we are planning a day trip into Montana to the Little Big horn battle field and maybe some other places. I think we will be there August 1-4.

Cool.
Definately hit the Cody Museum. Plan at least a full day there. Just the gun collection alone takes a few hours and that is not reading everything.

Try going through Sunlight Basin. it connects to the Pass. it also will take you to Cooke City and the Northeast entrance of Yellowstone.

I believe it is off the HWY 72 in Wyoming that there is a Japanese internment camp.
I remember my Dad pointing to the east of us and telling me that is where the camp was. I think i read a story on it about how some people were trying to restore it.
I know it is north of the Sunlight Basin road turn off.
Maybe ask around Cody somebody might know where it is and if you can visit it. Interesting part of history.

A drive through Wapiti valley towards Yellowstone is nice. Do not stop at the last resort before the park entrance. Trust me on this.

There are boat tours out on Yellowstone Lake. A lot of information about the parks history.

I don't know if Cody is still having the nightly rodeo.

Have fun.
