It's off to a fast start already this year! A list of incidents involving people trying to obtain the coveted Darwin Award. I will keep you up to date of all the stupid tourist tricks.

Then there is the whole small footprint size by comparison to a human. Due to that, the pounds of pressure per square inch is much higher for a hoofed animal. I am quite sure they would be more likely to punch a hole than any human of any size. [Reply]
Yeah sorry I didn't mean Bison and Elk weigh less than us, just that most wildlife in the park does. That said, I have never seen any Bison or Elk anywhere near any of the active geological features in the park. [Reply]

I just assumed it was a statement about American obesity rates. [Reply]

Try to hit the Beartooth Rally July 15-17. And once again, ride the Beartooths from Red Lodge to Cooke City. Don't take the Cody route. It's not the same! [Reply]

You're right, if you have never been that way it's a must. I go the Chief Joseph route now just to avoid old Granddad in Winnebago doing 5 MPH thinking he going to die. It keeps my blood pressure down and my .500 in the holster. :-) [Reply]

Amen!
Although, If you've never been up the pass, you'll stop for pictures often enough to not worry about grandpa. [Reply]
