Day 18 Riverton, WY to Casper, WY


Pat decided to adorn his kit

Meeting the SAG wagon

Even though the map is labeled 17, this is day 18.
The guys started out early today; it's a demanding ride.  Hopefully, the wind will be over their right or left shoulders, not in their face.  The sag team is prepared to meet them with water resupply, bananas and, pie.

The ride went well. Twice the guys had Prong Horn Antelopes running along side them.

Linda and I visited the National Historic Trails Interpretive Center.  It turns out that the Oregon Trail, The Mormon Trail, the Gold Diggers Trail and the Pony Express all converged at Casper to cross the North Platt River before they diverged.  On our drive, we saw "Hell's Half Acre".  Access was surrounded by chain-link fence; they were determined that we would not fall in.
