Eagles International Forum

When I was traveling 287 there was a restaurant at Virgina Dale man they had good food everything was home made that may be the reason I went that route lol now I thinking about chicken and dumpling see what you done


good luck and you guys travel safe no matter what route is chosen

Clifford

OR, you could just come here and we will work our way out I-90 to Sheridan and jump over to Cody.
Get a little tour of SD on the way.

O.K....this is amazing.....don't ask the people who live in Cody ...
(who have the same engine and drive train you have),,,anyway, Wayne has the best route for you.

When we came to your event, we went I -25 to Raton,NM to Amarillo TX. 287 has lots of small towns, and for our 871, Raton pass was a bit tough.

We are small town America people, so we liked the back routes/towns. If you want a quicker, more direct route...listen to Wayne. On the way from Thermopolis to Cody, you will have a hill or two...no big deal, just down shift! I can not encourage you enough to stay away from the Big Horn Mountains. Although these babies are beautiful....they are high and windy, with lots of switch backs. If you are not towing a car, you can use our car to spend the day going through the Big Horns.

If you stop in Thermopolis, the hot springs are fun. Be sure to use the back entrance, as the main entrance has a 12 ft high dipping underpass.
As I have said before, be sure to come from Shoshoni to Thermopolis ( Wind River Canyon) in the day light hours. One of the prettiest sights you will ever see!

One final point to all who are reading this...if you are coming through Cheyenne....watch the wind...it is very tough to deal with. You will have to be on your guard until Wheatland. When we were coming to the T.B.R...we went for 60 plus miles with gusting 40 m.p.h. cross winds.

See you soon,
Tony

Some people like interstate driving some don't if you been on 1 interstate you been on all and what makes you think some of us haven't lived in Cody or Denver before no need for you to get your panties in a wad geez we were just giving him some options I been all over that county with a 4 speed and a 8v71 in a Eagle leaving from Houston Tx

The building is still in Virgina Dale but it is empty. I to have eaten there and yes it was good food. It and the post office are all that there. Last time I was thru there you had to go to the Wyo border to eat but have not eaten there.

Safe travels
Wayne

I lived in cody for 14 years and been in and out of every road there is and pretty much every road in Wyoming FWIW

Only 4 years for me in Cody but the 2 years Tenneco had me in Green River would make 14 years in WY lol see why I live in Az Andy I know every way there is to get to Cody from Houston TX I made that trip 4 times a year for 4 years no way could I fly because I had compressors stations and pipelines to oversee along the different routes took me 3 weeks for each run and get back to Houston,I did do a little fishing lol

Well then Clifford there no reason for you not jump in the little Blue love machine of Sonja's and come to Cody

I don't know about the rally but we and the Albuquerque bunch are heading out that way some place do you have a place to park 4 RV's at your house and a good fishing hole Jones wants to fish lol fwiw you don't have to feed us we can con Smith into that
