sixty days and 5000 miles..........

---

and the adventure is only getting better. hell's canyon and lolo trail in idaho. kootenai falls, a suspension bridge, yaak river falls, spar lake, rocky ridge lake all in montana. these places gave me some of my favorite pictures of my trip thus far. i'll be heading up to canada for 4-5 weeks and i'm not sure of internet access up there. i'll be back when i find a connection.

lolo creek
this is the beginning of a 130 mile, single lane gravel road called the lolo trail. lewis and clark used it going both west and again back east. it took me two and a half days to drive it. 2-10 miles per hour at best. felt like i'd been thru the spin cycle time i finished but the scenery was a very good reward.

thats a smile on his face.

indian post office lake
they call it that because many who passed by here over the years would leave messages for others to read as they passed by.

Gorgeous photos
We went to some of the same places and enjoy your pictures of them. We love to primitive camp and hike, Spar Lake (2 weeks all to ourselves) and Caribou (north of Yaak) but winter was setting in and we needed to be at a lower elevation. If you get another chance to hike/camp, we loved the hike to Our Lake near Mill Falls Campground outside Choteau, Montana. Thanks for posting your pictures. They are breathtaking. We miss those beautiful, wondous places!
