My first and only family vacation trip was to Yellowstone Nat'l Park in June of my 11th or 12th year. First time seeing mountains (wonderful), enjoying temps in the 70s at midday in the summer (good), and experiencing food without seasoning (really not good). Also, my first time experiencing real snowfall...in June. Did the rubes from Louisiana bring coats? No, no we did not.

Uniglide? I've modified modern 'Hyperglide' cassettes to run on an old 600 hub and it was super easy. I miss that hub, it was virtually silent when coasting. A ~4 hour period spent riding in the rain ruined the driveside bearing races though ![Frown](images/smilies/frown.gif)

A lot of people don’t understand how cold it can get there during what they think should summer weather back home. Rode through there in ‘00. Woke up the second morning at Grant to frost on the ground in late-June. Altitude plays a role. Old Faithful sits at over 7,000’. It’s higher than all the passes I crossed in Montana on my way there. Craig Pass, SE of Old Faithful, is over 8,000’.
