- [/ten-sleep-wyoming-cabin-rentals](/ten-sleep-wyoming-cabin-rentals): Piton sits roughly 35–40 minutes from the town of Ten Sleep, WY — NOT in Ten Sleep itself, and Wyo Stays has no property in Ten Sleep proper. Piton is genuinely between Buffalo and Ten Sleep on the US-16 corridor.

- [/journal/starlink-wifi-bighorn-mountains-cabin](/journal/starlink-wifi-bighorn-mountains-cabin): Piton has working Starlink satellite WiFi at 8,500 ft despite having NO cell service on the property at all — two independent systems, not a contradiction.
- [/journal/snowmobile-in-cabins-wyoming-no-plow-service](/journal/snowmobile-in-cabins-wyoming-no-plow-service): What 'snowmobile-in only' winter access means at Piton: the road is not plowed once snow accumulates, parking sits ~1.5 mi from the cabin, and a tracked shuttle is available by arrangement.
