The southeast corner of Yellowstone near the mouth of the Thorofare River is the most distant point from a road in the lower 48 states. Half-way through this hike you'll be there! This 75-80 mile exclusive (limited to six guests) odyssey begins near the park's south entrance and ends on the Shoshone River's North Fork west of Cody, Wyoming. Late in the trip, cross the mighty Absaroka Range and enter the Washakie Wilderness Area, which abuts the park. Because you'll be covering roughly 8-12 miles each day with one layover, participants must travel light (bare bones!) and have good stamina. This trip has it all: vistas galore, verdant woods and wildflower meadows, huge mountain river valleys, blue lakes and sky-scraping peaks plus virtually all of Yellowstone's native wildlife. Be prepared for any kind of weather, and though most of the terrain is fairly gentle, this trip is rates strenuous because of mileages and remoteness. Its base is Gardiner, Montana.
