I live east of Cody near the Big Horn mountains & in fact am watching the sun rise over them now.
You do not want to drive fast on I-80 this time of year, you never know when you’ll hit a patch of ice. I once split my clinic time between Rawlins and Rock Springs, I hated that drive. I also hated the wind and snow in Rawlins where I lived for about 5 years before moving up here.
Have a safe trip today, some of the roads in the Rawlins area were closed yesterday due to blowing snow and ice.
Have a safe trip today,
Thanks, it was.

Agreed. Although there were 6 of us that hooked up from Rock Springs to Rawlins and managed to make the drive interesting.
I had looked at the WY cameras and wx info and things were supposed to be clear, but true to form a storm had turned Rawlins to Casper into an interesting drive of another sort.
WY 220 was snow covered but not real slick and east of Casper as if the snow just turned off. I was grateful the eleven and a half hours Mapleton UT, to Rapid City, was only 30 minutes longer than summer trip time, so I couldn’t complain.
Especially since some of the most difficult, dangerous, and challenging winter road experience in my life has taken place on Wyoming highways.
Saw it yesterday. Interesting to note were lots of men in the theater that were probably 75+.
