Bad Pass Trail, Archaeological trail in Big Horn County, United States.
The Bad Pass Trail extends along the western edge of Bighorn Canyon, marked by three hundred stone cairns from Shoshone River to Grapevine Creek.
Native Americans established this route 12,000 years ago as a path between the Bighorn Basin in Wyoming and the bison hunting grounds in Montana.
The trail features one thousand tipi rings on both sides, demonstrating the extensive presence of indigenous communities throughout different time periods.
Modern visitors need to carry tire repair equipment when driving along sections of the trail due to the rough terrain conditions.
The path contains hundreds of stone cairns, which accumulated over time as travelers added rocks for fortune during their journeys.
