GeoScience Educational Adventures … Wyoming’s Bighorn Basin – GeoScientists Love it, So Will You!
	For a Real Western Adventure, include a visit to Shell Valley in your Vacation Planning We are located on US Highway 14, near Shell, Wyoming, on the closest and most scenic route from the Black Hills of South Dakota to Yellowstone National Park. Shell is just two miles from the east entrance to Shell Canyon and the magnificent Big Horn Mountains, a one-hour drive from Cody, Wyoming, and two hours from the east entrance to Yellowstone National Park. Today’s visitors appreciate the varied terrain afforded by the proximity of Shell to the western slope of the Big Horn Mountains. This area remains one of the last vestiges of true cowboy country, where cowboys, horses, and ranch living remain a way of life. Visitors can always find a place to relax and dine on Real Western food in our area, A visit here may bring you in touch with a Wyoming cowboy or a group of geoscientists and researchers from major universities who are taking a break from excavating Jurassic dinosaur bones. Besides its natural beauty, the area is full of other pleasant surprises.
