With it, and all others we've had, we've just pulled it through Yellowstone and exited the East gate. It's a beautiful drive, and it's done by hundreds of RVers daily. You'd get to experience Cody that way, and maybe enjoy the Buffalo Bill Museum, etc., then take a nice easy mountain drive over the Bighorns on Hwy 16 (Worland to Buffalo). But if you prefer flatlands and interstates, it probably won't take much longer to just go north and grab I-90 eastbound.

AuntE: We dry camp at least 95% if the time and don't have a generator. You won't need A.C. in the mountains, so if you can do without a microwave, hair dryer and electric coffee pot, you can make it on batteries. If you only have one in your RV, this might be a good time to add one. We can get by about 4 days with our two batteries, and much of that use is to run the furnace at night. In the old days, when our small RVs didn't use furnace blowers, one battery could last that long with ease.

kfp673: I'm thinking probably not. Colter Bay is, if I'm not mistaken, inside Grand Teton NP, and I'm pretty sure ATVs are not allowed on any of the trails. If you want to ride them, plan on camping in NFS campgrounds instead. Most have access to ATV trails, logging trails, etc. I'd make sure of access to ATV trails before making reservations, however. I don't ride those noisy things! (Don't like 'em either, to be perfectly honest.)

Thanks. TO each their own I guess. I would prefer to be out riding over anything else. No better way IMO to enjoy nature and get places you could never get by foot. Thanks for the info
