Yellowstone Madison CG to Cody Day trip
I was wondering if anyone ever done a day trip from Yellowstone Madison campground inside the park to Cody? I read about a big grade between the two, anyone tell me about that? Thank You

Thanks guys, I'm just a little paranoid about pulling a TT up there. More so going down a steep grade than going up. I've been in the Smokies and I've smelt many of brakes getting hot. Not mine cause I don't pull my TT up there and when I did I always made sure I didn't have any steep roads in my plans. But it looks like I wont have a choice up there.
You will be in the Rockies - not the Smokies - real mountains, and to avoid them is not easy but to learn how to drive in them is really not that hard.
The trip will take between 3 and 4 hours one way so you really will be on the road most of the day - I'd look at relocating and pulling the trailer. The fact is it is one of the most traveled routes used by visitors to the park, so it is very doable with your rig.
JMHO,
