On my last entry, I posted a picture that indicated the temperature was over 100 degrees. Today, heat is not the issue, cold is!
The mountains in western WY are covered in snow and the temps are in the low to mid-50s during the day and falling below freezing at night.
The difference is the elevation. Eastern Nevada is at 1600 ft. and Western Wyoming is 6350 ft. The desert country of Eastern Nevada is entering summer, while the Rocky Mountains are entering spring. The aspens are bare, the grasses are brown, and due to the snow melt, there is a lot of mud.
Our poor truck is testament to the mud. That is supposed to be a white truck--mud season is upon us.
