Wyoming and Montana, 2007 – Crazy Woman Canyon

MORNINGS ARE GREAT We immensely enjoyed another great day in God’s country. We slept to almost 8:00 a.m., then enjoyed a nice leisurely cup of French press coffee. Kay shopped at the grocery store this morning as we were out of essentials like bread and milk. After lunch, Dick and Carolyn came by; Carolyn dropped Dick off.

Crazy Woman Canyon, Aug 07GREAT FISHING, OK CATCHING We, along with Dick, headed off to the Sports Lure for more flies and another trip to the Bighorn Mountains. After buying Half-Backs and Hoppers, we drove up in the mountains to Crazy Woman Canyon. After a descent of about 2,500 feet, we began fishing Crazy Woman Creek near what we thought was the bottom of the canyon, and immediately caught brookies and rainbows on Big Uglies and Halfbacks; we later found that the canyon descended another half mile towards Kaycee, WY. Climbing and fishing through the boulders is not for the tame hearted, but the rewards are many. After about an hour, we ascended back to the highway, then on to Crazy Woman Creek near the campground just short of the summit of US Highway 16 crossing the Big Horns. It’s a beautiful valley, but the fishing proved tough today. Donald managed only one small brookie here on a Dunn’s Dun, despite numerous rises.

GUESS IT WASN’T THE ONION The sewer odor is still with us, so it obviously wasn’t the rotted onion. When the dealer did the sewer fix, they obviously did not do a thorough job job.
