This section of the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route is entirely in Wyoming. It begins in the magnificent Teton country and winds its way up and over a couple of high Continental Divide crossings before skirting the west slope of the Wind River Mountains en route to historic South Pass City. From there, the route drops into the Great Divide Basin on its way to Rawlins. The terrain changes dramatically between Colter Bay and Rawlins: from lofty mountain meadows, to sagebrush-covered cattle and pronghorn country, to high, dry desert that’s spectacular in its own right.

I'm riding the Great Divide Wind River -- Van Supported with ACA in Aug this year, and I'm very happy to have my hard-copy map in my possession. I also purchased the digital GPX map too! This map is high quality, and it was easy to matchup our tour itinerary to the paper map. The maps offered by ACA are a fantastic resource for the whole cycling community!

I have not actually used this map yet but have used the CAN section and Section 1. They are the coolest maps I have ever used. Lots of super info. Very durable. Can't imagine doing the route without it. Lost the trail a couple times. Next time I will also take a GPS. An accurate speedo is a must.

Used the GDMBR maps sections 1-3 for a Jeep trip from Steamboat Springs, CO to Bowman Lake, MT (Glacier NP). Maybe not what the Adventure Cycling Assoc. had in mind for transportation, but a superb resource for a great trip.
