In-Depth Information
About 2 miles (3 km) east of Yellowstone's boundary, the road crosses the North Fork
of the Shoshone, which it's been following since Cody. From here into the park, we ascend
Middle Creek,
centered between other North Fork tributaries called Jones Creek and Eagle
Creek.
You pass Sleeping Giant Campground and ski area (for cross-country and downhill skiing)
and historic
Pahaska Tepee,
Buffalo Bill's hunting lodge, one hundred years old in 2004 and
now open for free tours. The road from Cody is kept open this far all winter. The lodge's asso-
ciated cabins and restaurant are the last facilities before entering Yellowstone.
