Dubois to Whiskey Creek Camp 7/26 48 miles

Another beautiful cool morning to start immediately on a 10 mile
climb to 9600ft, my highest climb so far.  It took 3hrs of steady climbing to go those 10 miles.  Grueling, loose gravel, beautiful!  Behind us the Bridger Mtn's., once over the top, the Tetons in front of us.


 We met a Dept of Agric. land manager at the top.  We talked with him for about half an hour about the fires in the south, grazing rights of permit holders and how he makes sure they're not overgrazing the land, and how he would not recommend tent camping here "cuz of them grizzlies".

Then we started riding through the subalpine wilderness towards Whiskey Creek.  The road was very rough and we had to stop a few times to take a break from the pounding.  We spent the night dry camping on the beautiful raging Green River.
