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.
