Grand Tetons thru Yellowstone to Cody WY
Just wondering if anyone has taken their bus from Moran, WY (Grand Tetons) thru the Tetons and Yellowstone to Cody, WY via 191 89/287 north to 14/20 east to Cody, WY?
It’s not labeled on the map as a trucker’s route; however, we’ve seen numerous Prevost tour buses on southern route in the Tetons since arriving. Need to climb thru a 10,000 pass, but I understand it’s built for large RVs. They just don’t have 18-wheelers going thru the park.
By going thru the two National Parks, we would save considerable time rather than going SE to Riverton, WY and then up to Cody, WY.

just today traveled from West Yellowstone to Cody. Lots of traffic all in a big herry. Traveling east from fishing bridge be careful on the down hill grade. Third gear worked great trans stayed cool.

We drove our coach through Yellowstone twice last summer. I see no problems driving a coach through Yellowstone as long as you know how to drive in the mountains.

Thanks Guys,
No problem driving at elevation. We were in Glacier last week and the main road thru the NP wouldn’t allow any vehicles over 21′. No way you would ever take a Prevost over that pass … not due to elevation, but primarily due to the hair-pin turns, jetting rocks, and no shoulder!
While there last week, two of their 18′ shuttle vans hit ongoing traffic and lost their mirrors while traveling from Logan’s Pass to Avalance Creek … but what an Awesome drive!

Two years ago while at Glacier in the Jeep we saw a fiberglass motorhome about half way up pulled to the side with police and that cop was not happy, had traffic all screwed up. Don’t know how he managed to get there, but he did.

Last September we drove through Colorado, Wyoming and Montana. Had no problem with Grand Teton or Yellowstone in our bus with Toad. But no way could you drive a bus through Glacier. Roads are tight enough in a Jeep. Great trip though. One of our most memorable.
