For the next 32 miles take a step back in time as the Red Gulch/ Alkali
National Back Country Byway highlights many different kinds of
transportation used to explore the Bighorn Basin. Near each of the two
entrances to this historic route you will see a National Back Country
Byway kiosk. It provides historical information about the byway as well
as road conditions. Please take all necessary safety precautions. In
normal conditions a high clearance, two-wheel drive vehicle can manage
the road without much difficulty. The steep, rugged canyons cut into
the mountains along the byway and offer many challenging and
interesting hiking opportunities. Among the wondrous sights you may see
are hoodoos. These strange, artistic rock formations were carved over
the centuries by Wyoming's wind.
