We arrived in Evanston this afternoon and took a quick tour of the city, since we had not been here in quite a few years. Evanston seems to be a very healthy community. It is on the western edge of the Wyoming high desert country and at about 6800 feet altitude. The usually small Bear Creek is now a raging river!

As we traveled west across Wyoming we notice that there is still snow behind some snow-fences and along the lip of many of the ridges. The mountains that you pass are all still very well covered in snow and the word is that they have had far above normal snowfall last winter and this past spring. Now the problem is that it has been warming up fairly rapidly and the result is flooding. The little stream called Bear Creek is now a raging torrent and the runoff has just begun!

We are spending the night at the Phillips RV Park at exit 6. It is a nice park, very clean and with good gravel roads and level gravel pads. The price was $29 for the night with 50A & cable. They also give a 10% discount for cash.
