Shell Canyon and Falls

Posted on August 29, 2020August 29, 2020

Shell Canyon, like I mentioned on the other day’s blog post, has a great deal in common with Ten Sleep Canyon. Massive walls, creek in the bottom, winding, twisting, switchback roads.

Shell Canyon’s Highway 14 is narrower than Ten Sleep’s Highway 16.

More semi’s travel over Ten Sleep… and you’ll understand why when I include some footage in next week’s Re-Red Video.

If height and switchbacks don’t bother you, you’ll witness some rough country and impressive canyon walls.

The smoke was still laying thick, so the skies aren’t very clear.

Partway up the hill, you’ll see the Shell Falls Interpretive Center.

Although the websites say this is open, obviously it’s not. That doesn’t matter, the paved paths are still there.

People come to see the falls, though.

And to take their (anniversary) photo!

    Happy Anniversary to you both. Lovely photo. We had our 50th in lockdown, so just the two of us. I got out old photos for family to see and we enjoyed the special cake ordered before lockdown with our coffee each day. I think we got through it in about 4 weeks!!!!

    When I was in college, several of my classmates spent summers with the Bighorn IR crew out of — Shell, WY. Soft spot in my heart. I didn’t realize it was such a small place (the town that is).
    Beautiful scenery though.
    And Happy Anniversary to you and Vernon!

    Impressive geology to those falls. I haven’t seen anything like it in the west.
