cant trailer all the way in from the east, got to park and ride the last 5 miles, from the west you can drive in, from laurel drive west to livingston and drive south to gardiner then on to cooke

Heading to Cooke in a couple weeks from Regina, SK. Also wondering what the options are... I don't need truck and trailer access in cooke city, so if I can shave off a bunch of driving time, by sledding the last 5 miles from the east that is awesome.

If you want to access from the East, what is the highway like to the parking lot? I don't mind sledding in, what is the trail/road like with the sleds? Any additional info would be appreciated....

we come in from the east. All i have to say is do it in the daytime if you can. Great scenary to have a look at . The road was good when we went. Alot of switchbacks and climbing . Make sure to take winterfront of truck to prevent from overheating. Have a blast.
