Union Pass meeting Curious Pronghorn Antelope - Great Divide Northbound - Bikepacking Day 31

Day 31 (June 30): Today for lunch: Climbing up Union Pass (9,212ft), 76 miles, 4200 feet climbing, lots of fun.

Thanks, Wyoming, for another beautiful day with green meadows, high mountains, colorful flowers and even the last few snowfields! 🙏🌺

Out of Pinedale, our ride takes us through lush farmland - it's a treat to ride the remote dirt road with ranches and mountains as a backdrop. We love the expanse views and are still not tired of them after many days on the GDMBR.
When we head into Bridger National Forest the road gets rougher and the scenery more alpine. Pronghorns are racing across the meadows and cross our way - they seem to be more curious here than in the Basin...
We progress to Teton National Forest then Shoshone National Forest.
Beautiful flower meadows, clear alpine lakes, and the occasional left-over snowfield skirt our way. The views up Union Pass are amazing- mountains everywhere! And, the Crooked Creek Ranch is a wonderful place for us to finish the day and enjoy a big, vegetarian dinner. Homemade chips, guacamole, burgers and sweet potato fries - great fuel for tomorrow! It’s also so fun to see the Cowboys finish their day and share a drink and story… amazing West!
