X2 on what mabynack said. We have driven over the Bighorn Mountains 3 times, twice on route 14 and once on route 16, all in the eastbound direction. Route 14 is steeper and has more curves, but IMO much more scenic. There is a large pull out on the left going up the east side of 14 that has a great long distance view of the plains to the east. Going down the west side is Shell Falls, worth a stop. We saw Moose both times we drove 14.
If you want to break up the trip, there are a number of Forest Service Campgrounds in the Bighorns. We stayed a night at Tie Flume two years ago and loved it.
