A Backcountry Ride You'll Never Forget

Along the way, you’ll cross wildflower-filled meadows, spot roaming bison, and sleep under a galaxy of stars.
Start: Lamar Valley Trailhead Begin your journey in the wildlife-rich Lamar Valley, where the open plains and herds of elk and bison offer a dramatic launch point into Yellowstone’s remote terrain.

- Cache Creek Camp — Scenic views and solitude, nestled against the Absaroka foothills.
- Pebble Creek — Lush and tranquil, perfect for your final night before looping back.
End: Back at the Lamar Ranger Station Circle back after 3–4 days of rugged riding and remote camping, with memories (and trail dust) to last a lifetime.
