Cody Wyoming RV Stay & Shoshone Fly Fishing & Wild Horses
I'm way behind on videos, but we have been winding our way toward Glacier NP, but we needed a place to stay over Labor Day. Campgrounds are usually crowded, especially those near national parks. We found an inexpensive campground with beautiful views at Buffalo Bill State Park just outside of Cody, WY. The area has a lot to offer from wild horses on BLM land east of town to historic museums in town, as well as my favorite, fly fishing on the Shoshone. Make sure and subscribe if you would like to follow along with Terri, George(me) & Gizzy on our adventures as we wander the country living full time in our red, 2002 Newmar Dutch Star, diesel pusher RV. I swear, we have to be the only people in a red class A motorhome.
You can also follow our blog at jumingoffthecliff.com or on facebook via facebook.com/jumpingoffthecliff. We started this adventure in the Summer of 2016.
While our channel is based on living full time in an RV, our subject matter wanders a little like we do;)
Anyway, I hope you will join us as we wander about. Thanks for watching, subscribing, commenting, etc.
East Yellowstone Exit - Interstate 20 to Cody Wyoming
Wyoming's total population is just a little more than 560,000. That's smaller than the population of many cities, this is the real West, waiting to be explored and enjoyed. The amazing changes is geography is just starting as we descend from Yellowstone National Park to Cody, Wyoming, where not long ago Buffalo Bill rode and put on Wild West Shows.
Red rock formations and canyons still have wild mustangs (horses) roaming and grizzly bears are found in the high country while pronghorn antelope are in the plains.
Natural gas exploration has been driving Wyoming economy recently but it's the natural beauty at every turn that I will remember of Wyoming, it would be a great place to rent an RV and tour around for a couple of weeks, just getting away from it all. Listening to coyotes at night by a campfire, seeing the stars, fly fishing small streams in the high country and remembering that we all need an escape, back to nature.

Yellowtail Dam and development activity at Bighorn Canyon
This video looks at the building of the Yellowtail Dam and its effect upon the natural landscape of Bighorn Canyon. This segment includes looks at the creation of the Afterbay Lake, the Yellowtail Wildlife Habitat Management Area and the animals which inhabit the area surrounding the canyon.
Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area on the Montana-Wyoming boundary is a place where sheer cliffs tower 1,000 feet above a ribbon of blue water, where wild horses run free, and is home to the majestic Bighorn Sheep. About one third of the park unit is located on the Crow Indian Reservation. Over 200,000 visitors each year enjoy its natural beauty and the multiple recreational opportunities on offer at Bighorn.
The park, occupying approximately 68,000 acres between the Pryor and Bighorn mountain ranges, was established in 1966 to preserve the area's natural and cultural resources and provide for public enjoyment after Yellowtail Dam was constructed by the Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) on the Bighorn River. The dam, named after the famous Crow leader Robert Yellowtail, harnesses the waters of the Bighorn River by turning that variable watercourse into Bighorn Lake that extends for approximately 71 miles (114 km) at full pool.
Afterbay Lake located below Yellowtail Dam is a popular spot for trout fishing as well as for viewing ducks, geese and other animals. The Bighorn River below the Afterbay Dam is likewise a world-class trout fishing area. In addition, many archeological and historical resources serve to complement the area's natural features
Bighorn Canyon offers a diverse landscape of forest, mountains, upland prairie, deep canyons, broad valleys, lake and wetlands. Vegetation communities in the park include desert shrubland, juniper woodland, mountain mahogany woodland, sagebrush steppe, basin grassland, riparian, and coniferous woodland. The wildlife is equally diverse including bighorn sheep, wild horses, coyotes, mule deer, snakes, small mammals, mountain lions, bears, and more than 200 bird species. The 39,000-acre Pryor Mountain Wild Horse Range, about one-fifth of which lies within Bighorn Canyon NRA, provides habitat for both the majestic Bighorn Sheep and the fabulous Pryor Mountain Wild Horses. Bighorn Canyon is truly one of the most significant natural areas in the United States.
The depth of Bighorn Canyon is approximately 1,000 feet deep at Devil Canyon and 2,500 feet deep on Bull Elk Ridge. Researchers have found Upper Jurassic Period fossils and fossil tracks and bones in the park, and discovered the remains of Pleistocene animals in debris piles at cave entrances. Bighorn Canyon's archeological history includes Bad Pass Trail, which has been used for more than 10,000 years and is marked by 500 rock cairns spread over 13 miles.
