Saturday 6th May Denver to Rock Springs

Not one of our best journeys as far as the view was concerned. Mile after mile after mile of Interstate as a means to getting as close to Jackson Hole for the next day. We stopped overnight at Rock Springs in a new Hampton Inn, a very nice place although the Internet was down.
The journey took us via Cheyenne and into Rawlins, a hick town if ever you saw one, for a quick Subway sandwich and off again. The Interstate that we were on Number 80 runs from San Francisco to Chicago, as fas as I could see on the map, quite some distance. The road was full of trucks and even the train lines which ran alongside were also very busy.
Anyway we covered the ground, 350 miles, as we could not do the 550 in one day to get us to Jackson Hole.
