[Cdt-l] Wyoming - Stock Driveway?

[cicelyb250 at aol.com]

 You may also find some very old signs in those areas that say stock driveway.
  ahh sheep - a new line of info.  Just be aware that they are guarded by great Pyrenees dogs that do not like you!!  Walk softly as Jim says and keep telling them you are not a coyote or cougar looking to eat the lambs.  It worked for me.

You run into them several places on the CDT, including Colorado.  Sheep and/or cattle are allowed to graze the high country and are brought in via the stock driveways.  For CDT hikers, when the trail follows a stock driveway, it means following a cairned route that is pretty easy to follow but may not have a single treadway, just a wide open meadow.  The Wolf guidebooks will tell you when you're following a stock driveway.
