Crazy Woman Canyon - and Crazy Woman Creek and Crazy Woman Road - in Wyoming's Bighorn Mountains are famed for the stunning beauty. Recently we visited Crazy Woman Canyon and, in this video, share both the legends of this canyon and the incredible scenery.

    What an amazing trip 🤩 it warms my heart to see you two traveling and seeing such gorgeous places. I love you both
  • What an incredible place! Once again, you have added some beauty and calmness to my day!
  • @Paws4It
    Fantastic video! Thank you!
  • Wow Robert I so enjoyed this video. So sad about the graffiti and the closings albeit understandable under the circumstances. I know I can come to your channel for beautiful scenery, history and music so thank you for that. I look forward to your next video on the outdoor church. So good too to see you and Mel having marvelous adventures in spite of the high gas prices.
  • Beautiful! I especially like the butterfly landing on Melanie's thumb.

    We were there the end of July ‘22, the gate was closed and we couldn’t go any further, entering from the east! You were fortunate!
  • @sjr7822
    Where are the 'do not litter signs? Those grey or white birch trees, and brook, views are amazing. Imagine chopping through those boulders to make the roads.
  • That crazy woman Pioneer story is remarkable as it was depicted in the 1970s movie “Jeremiah Johnson” starring Robert Redford. If you haven’t seen that movie, you should check it out. It is one of my all time favorites!

    Spectacular views there I`ve only passed through on a bus. I didn`t see that obviously. There must have been a lot of crazy women out there?
  • One of the coolest parts of that canyon is near the end where the creek suddenly disappears and goes underground. Then it comes back out further down stream at about half the capacity. It didn't used to do that 30 years ago when I would go there. That was always a great place to go fishing if you were feeling kind of lazy since you could drive along until you found a nice hole to try out.

    I go to my happy place in a jeep Where the mountains are steep On the rough trail course I keep Next to hidden lake there I sleep
  • I'm a local from Buffalo. 42 years resident. The Forrest Service won't close Crazy Woman canyon. Because local ranchers use it to get to their summer range in the Southern Big Horns. The road on the bottom going to the canyon is Johnson County road. Then Forrest Service road. The locals believe the name came from the first story. The lady lost her family and the Native Americans didn't want anything to do with her because she didn't act right. The North Fork of Crazy Woman creek starts up on Sheep mountain road. By Powder River pass. Unfortunately kids spray painted that stuff. Locals have been known to collect the bat poop for fertilizer. Don't think to many do that anymore though. The campground in the canyon was closed because the Forrest Service didn't want to maintain it anymore. There's lots of campgrounds and camping places throughout the mountains. If you want a spot in the summer in a campground my advice get there earlier. Don't wait until late afternoon. They will be full. If anyone needs help or has a question i would gladly help. Great job on the video! Its always interesting to see how others see my area. 😊
