Bighorn Scenic Byway — Shell Canyon (US-14)
A 57-mile National Scenic Byway along US-14 between Shell and Dayton, crossing the Bighorn National Forest via Granite Pass (9,033 ft). The western approach ascends through Shell Canyon's sheer limestone and dolomite walls past the 120-foot plunge of Shell Falls, gaining 4,600 ft in 18 miles. Meets the Medicine Wheel Passage (US-14A) at Burgess Junction on the summit plateau.
