We completed another section (albeit a very small section) of the GART in Wyoming. We sampled the Hot Springs in Thermopolis and were awestruck by the beauty of the Sitting Bull Campground in the Big Horn National Forest … not bad for this week, huh?

We parked at a Super 8 and took to the trail which was just across the street. Our logic in parking half way was that if anything went wrong on the 8.5 mile trek (17 miles roundtrip), it wouldn’t be as far to get back to Blue. As it turned out, all went well, but with David’s recent spate of flats, we couldn’t be too careful.

I, on the other hand, had never visited this out-of-the-way, memory-making place, so when we were looking for our next campsite, it didn’t take long to make a decision. Williams Fork, it was. We consulted the National Forest website to insure that the campground was open and off we went.
Read MoreHi there and welcome to Just A Little Further!
We are David and Marcie Lynn and we've lived aboard our Liberty 458 cutter-rigged sailboat since 2000.
What began as an urge to travel slowly and economically at our own pace ended up an adventure of a lifetime.
Well, here we are ... nearly 90,000 miles under the keel, 5 continents, 5 Great Southern Capes, 36 countries and almost two decades later, still taking one passage at a time and going just a little further.
