Thunder Road

After leaving Devil's Tower, I had to drive across Wyoming through Bighorn national forest to Cody. Thunder, wind, rain, lightning lashed the high prairie all afternoon and evening. Besides having to dodge deer three times, there wasn't another car on the road for hours. Harrowing indeed.
 
I have a lot more respect for those who call the wild west home. Although beautiful, this land can be harsh and tests your mettle. You have to be pretty rugged, hardy and self-reliant.
