During our visit to Wyoming this summer we found a hike new to us and returned to an old favorite one.
A new pet friendly hike
The new site we explored is at the Split Rock rest area. Parking is located about 8 miles west of Muddy Gap on US287/US789. There is a short trail with interpretive signs about the area and a large rock outcropping for the more adventurous people and dogs. While the actual split in the rock is better viewed another 3 miles west, wagon ruts created by the emigrants heading through the pass can be found at this location.
An old favorite pet friendly hike
A popular hike closer to Lander is the trail up to Popo Agie falls. Drive up Sinks Canyon to Bruce’s Bridge parking area. The hike is 3 miles round trip. If you don’t mind the cold water try out the rock slide into the pool. More details about the hike can be found here.
