Unlike its famous neighbors to the north, like Independence Pass and Monarch Pass, Marshall Pass does not follow a major highway and is off the beaten track. As a result, it is a quiet reprieve from large RVs and obnoxious tourists driving 10 mph below the speed limit. Topping out at 10,842 ft, it is an excellent destination for hiking, dispersed camping, and mountain biking.

Eclipse Viewing Spot
Castle Gardens Petroglyphs Rd, WY
Here is the campsite where a group of friends* met to view the 2017 eclipse. A few came in a couple days earlier to secure the site on BLM land in the center of Wyoming. They sent the GPS coordinates to me** and I emailed them to the others.
You can't tell from this photo, but the countryside was full of many other folks camped out to witness the eclipse. The weather held and everyone got great views!
*Not all the friends had previously met IRL, but most had met on the WanderTheWest.com forum, most of whose members have pop-up truck campers, as can be seen in the photo.
**GPS coordinates of the campsite were sent via inReach handheld satellite communications device.
