Description
Wyoming highway 70 descending from Battle Pass (elevation 9,955-ft) toward Encampment, about 15 miles distance.The vertical markers with extensions along the side of the paved road are about 8-ft tall. They give one an idea as to how much snow usually falls during the season. These markers help the Department of Transportation determine when to close this highway for the winter. This picture was taken on 9 August 2015, Sig..

Very beautiful and very nice!
Wonderful Work,
I thought they were for snow plows to know where the edge of the highway is at. learn something every month. superb landscape
So interesting!
Mighty lot of snow if i look at those markers my friend. Superb capture my friend. God bless.
and here I thought they were the guides for the skiers when they passed up the cars
cool
Beautiful shot.
They are also good night guides for the S curve! Great shot of mountain driving.
Great view of the countryside!
Yes, I have seen a report, as it is covered in snow there in winter. It is evacuated and blown up like crazy ... Great photo!
I'll bet it's stunning when dressed with fresh snow! Wonderful view and shot.
nice view
When we were in Yellowstone earlier this year, we noticed that the snow marker poles were color coded. I don't remember which was which now, but some were yellow and some were orange. One color indicated a clear shoulder, and the other marked bridges, curbs, drop-offs and fences. We surmised that the colors were to let the plows know how much room they had to maneuver.
