Big Sandy Lodge

[10-K]

Anybody been there? Looks like a Wyoming version of Benchmark - no electricity, etc.

I'm using it as a mail drop to break up the carry between Dubois and Lander.

We did maildrops there on both of our thruhikes. My understanding is that they now require you to stay there if you are going to do a maildrop. The rates are pretty high. When we hiked, we were able to take a shower ($$$) and eat meals ($$) with them and camp nearby.

I was there back in the 90's.
Didn't stay, just stopped in to check it out.
People were friendly enough (contrary to the scuttlebutt)

I stayed there one night to pick up a mail drop resupply in late July last summer during a Section Hike.
Very Friendly people and good food. Showered and cleaned my clothes in the shower.
Like someone else said; no electricity, cell service or WIFI. They use wood stoves, generator to power
their Laundry, and kerosene lamps for lighting. I liked it. Not cheap though. It's a long way out to get
supplies and mail for them so it's understandable.
I started a Section Hike down at South Pass on Hwy 28 so it was only about 43 miles into the hike but it
felt good to stop there for the afternoon and night.
You get a small log cabin with a wood stove for heat and Kerosene lamp for light with buffet dinner, breakfast
and box lunch in the Main Lodge building. Bathrooms with shower in the Laundry/Bath building.
