Today was a rather sad day, as our time exploring Yellowstone was now up. It was time to start to head east back towards Kentucky. We still had a few more days of traveling and exploring, but our trip had reached its climax. In the morning we went to the stores at Canyon to buy a few last souvenirs and gifts. Then it was on to the Yellowstone River Picnic Area where we hiked along the narrows of the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. For our last hike in Yellowstone it was a rather steep and difficult ascent of Specimen Ridge to check out a portion of the world's largest collection of standing petrified trees.
Then we exited the park via the Northeast Entrance and were soon in Cody, Wyoming. We got some food at a Mexican restaurant in Cody and then headed back on the road to Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area near Lovell. We set up our tent in the hot, dry desert for a sweaty nights sleep.
