We plan to take the America West tour this September (our fourth OU tour).
The first time the America West tour will be given is later this month. To help us plan the free time periods, would those taking the tour before us, please describe what they did during the free periods including restaurants they ate in.

Additional question - to supplement what OU suggested in their written material, what shoes/boots did you find you needed on the trip?

No one responded to my questions before we took the tour (American West). Now I can answer my own questions and will do so for anyone else taking this tour.
We generally didn't do too much during the free time periods, either because (a) nothing interested us that much, (b) we needed some minor items and decided to do basic shopping in lieu of more touring, or (c) the generally high altitude left us a bit more tired than we usually would be (coming from sea level where we live). As for restaurants, we enjoyed the lunch at Tally's Silver Spoon in Rapid City. We had lunch in Cody at Irma's Hotel. The food was good (not great), but the hotel is worth seeing. We had dinner in Cody at Wyoming Rib and Chophouse. Food was tasty, at NYC prices though. We were glad we made a reservation as it was quite crowded. In Jackson Hole, we ate at the Rustic Inn for dinner. The food was very good there.
We never walked through mud or water, so didn't need high boots. Good walking waterproof shoes with good treads is all we needed.
