Why take the direct Slab route from Sheridan, Wyoming to Great Falls, Montana when you can scale several mountain ranges, tangle with a thunderstorm, and dodge deer? All it takes is a few hundred extra miles. Who’s in?

2021 Snarl Par-Tay Day 2 – Impromptu Iron Butt
I’m feeling more human today, but running waaaay behind. I guess it’s time to just haul ass.
