We just returned from our annual vacation and this year we took the 2007 GT/CS again. From the Black Hills to Yellowstone/Grand Tetons, to uncommon short sections of Route 66 in Kansas and Missouri on the way home. 5,200 miles tacked on to the odometer. We took over 500 photos so I picked out interesting ones with most of them involving the Mustang. I made short notes under each photo. Lots of rain in Yellowstone, then dirt roads in Utah at the Dinosaur National Park, so keeping the car detailed was tough. I gave up the final 4 days after hitting tar at some interstate construction projects. Two days of detailing at home, some fluid changes, and we are ready for another trip!

Badlands Nat'l Park in SD.

Yes, our GT fit through this Needles Highway tunnel in SD.

Finally some 'topless' weather.

Our 'close encounter' with Devils' Tower in Wyoming.

Starting the Beartooth Highway in Montana.

Quite a drive from NC.

Buffalo 'right of way'.

Old Faithful. No blue skies unfortunately.

This Utah park in Vernal was excellent with it's real 'wall of fossils'.

Of course we had to check out this stop right at the Utah/Wyoming border.

Great photos!
Thanks for sharing.

 

Beautiful pics!

 

Thanks for sharing. They look great. Your trip must have been a blast.

 

Thanks for the comments. I just realized the 3rd photo down was at Mt Rushmore. I can see Washington's profile near the top.

 

Awesome! Thanks for sharing

 

Great pictures Dave. It looks like you had some good weather along the way. It's absolutely beautiful out west, and the GT/CS looks right at home.

 

Very awesome pics. Thanks for sharing and congrats on your western road trip along historic route 66 while on vacation

 

Always enjoy your pictures. I love Yellowstone, such a great park.

 

Thanks! The weather was so-so, especially the cold and rain in Yellowstone, when the week just before was sunny and in the 70's. I guess it could have been worse as just a few weeks later I see Montana received a lot of snow in areas.

 

I took a vacation through most of those areas in April 2018. Very beautiful part of the country. Only thing we missed was Yellowstone...the park was still closed. The friend that planned the trip caught hell for that blunder. Think Marty Moose "Sorry folks...." LOL

 

You really take some great trips! Love the photos you share. You are getting very close to my neck of the woods! Thanks for sharing you photos. Love to see more if you can share them.
