Missoula, MT

This morning when we left Lewistown to avoid road construction on US 200 we went north on US 191 and then west on MT 81 through the Judith mountains Then back south were we again got on US 200 toward Great Falls, MT. Along this route we drove past huge fields of cut wheat. There wasn't a cloud in the sky and you could see forever, I see where Montana gets the Big Sky nick name. At Great Falls we turned south on I-15 Traveling along the beautiful Missouri River Canyon through the Big Belt Mtns. Helena MT, sets in a huge valley. Coming down into it from the north I told Nancy that it didn't look like a very big town, but it turned out to be fairly good sized. At Helena we turned west on US 12 over MacDonald Pass (elev. 6340ft.) At Garrison we turned NW on I-90 traveling through more mountainous area arriving at the beautiful Jim & Marys RV park in Missoula mid afternoon.
