A trip down memory lane...

There was some discussion on the scooter forum where I spend too much time (like-minded people); it turned to places where the roads are great.  Probably due to me posting some ride reports from the Black Hills and a friend posting something from the Deal's Gap area in North Carolina/Tennessee.  And then a mention by another participant about riding in Yellowstone and the Tetons.

My reply...

It's all about the timing, the season, the weather... we worked one summer (?? the last snowfall was mid-June) in Yellowstone (who knew they had a cruiseboat) - great riding when the weather wasn't ugly...



That was in our "pre-scooting" days. I love that area, but the summer season is too short. One summer in the Tetons, we arrived in May for our jobs (I was driving a cruiseboat, Joan was the marina retail/activities manager), and they had to use a front end loader to clean the snow out of our RV site...





Joan's first day at work that year...



Yes, that is snow 3/4 of the way up on the store's front doors. Didn't look any better for my job...



We didn't get the cruiseboats in until mid-June that "summer." No, I don't miss the snow one stinkin' bit. Didn't get much riding in that season. Got boat work done...



It was early July before we got our second cruiseboat launched that summer (2011)...



July 7th before getting in a ride...



No, seriously, I don't miss the snow and cold.  Not one bit.
