US Highway 16 enters Ten Sleep Canyon just 5 miles or so outside the small western town of Ten Sleep, before leading higher into the Bighorn Mountains. Climbers can’t help but notice the tiers of Madison Limestone and Bighorn Dolomite on either side of the highway, running almost non-stop all the way up to Meadowlark Lake at the top of the canyon. The rock is generally of pretty good quality and offers an abundance of features, with most being crimps and pockets.
