Overlanding Wyoming by way of the Backcountry Discovery Route (BDR) - Section 7 - EP 2
5,676
Published 2022-10-28
Section 7 is 119 miles descending the Big Horn Mountains (north to south) from Burgess Junction, WY to Ten Sleep, WY. We elected to take the 22 mile long expert section over remote Woodchuck Pass (9636 elevation). Section 7 including the expert section is spectacular and deserves as much time as you can spare to fully enjoy it!
Travel dates: August 14-15, 2022

We live in Ten Sleep. When you were near medicine lodge you were on the logging trail for a bit that's why it was rough.
-
Looks like you guys were there about the same time as we did it in early last October. We did north to south as well, such an awesome trip! Great video π
-
So good! Love the vids. Keep them coming. But that thumbnail is hard to read π
-
Great video, can't wait to tackle that BDR! Is that a large Ipad with Gaia GPS you're using for navigation?
-
Its hard to tell from the map. If rain, are you suggesting bypass the section from Hyattville to Ten Sleep? I will be on a GS, you remember, what you road before you went to the 4x4 dark sideπ
-
I just found your channel, excellent video. We are headed to the Grand Tetons this July. Can you share where you found the GAIAGPS files?
-
Thinking of doing this segment. Jeep Gladiator Rubicon (4WD, lockers), and pulling an offroad trailer. Any tight switchbacks or other concerns that would be problematic?
