I’ll be the first to admit that we didn’t come anywhere close to doing Montana justice. We basically cut enough of the corner between Wyoming and North Dakota to count it as a “visit” (even still, it was 300 miles!) but purposely decided ahead of time that it was a state we would revisit later to explore in more detail.
Our visit was essentially limited to a stop at the Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument. It was a cold, wet day with the precipitation fluctuating between rain and snow, and my photos reflect that. While I’m sure that sunny weather like we saw for most of our trip would have made it more beautiful, the gloomy weather made for appropriate conditions at a place that has such a dark role in American history.
Never been there. I am a believer that there is beauty in all of nature, heck let’s just include the universe. My visits were also just short excursions. Well, I did ride the motorcycle across the state. One of the prettiest rides I’ve ever had was following along a rainstorm somewhere between Missoula and Butte. I need to go back!
We only saw a small portion, and it was in less than ideal weather. A return trip is necessary, for sure!
