These pictures were sent to me June 21, 2011, from Burgess Junction, Wyoming.
They were taken last Friday, June 17, 2011 -- I believe they were delayed getting to me due to dogs having to rest each evening before the dog sled could continue its daily journey.
According to the photographer, Burgess Junction is on the north side of the Big Horns, south of Sheridan, Wyoming. Burgess Junction is kind of on the divide between the Tongue River and Little Big Horn drainages.
This global warming snowpack will be coming down the Tongue shortly into Lake Sakakawea behind Garrison Dam.
A big "thank you" to Don for forwarding me these pictures.
I understand how the driver of the third vehicle knows where to go, but I'm kinda wondering about the driver of the first vehicle. The guy in the third vehicle just follows the highway's yellow stripe, but the lead driver must be following a St Bernard.
