A photographic Montana journey to the National Bison Range, St. Ignatius Mission, Rattlesnake National Recreation Area and Wilderness, Garnet Ghost Town, and Bannack Ghost Town; to Blackfoot Pathways Sculpture in the Wild (near Lincoln); over Stemple Pass (gorgeous with wildflowers), to the State Capitol Building in Helena. Then a boat ride down the Missouri River at Gates of the Mountains, and later stopped to photograph along the river. Yellowstone was truly astonishing. And not too crowded. The Big Hole Battlefield was extremely moving. And the Japanese Garden in Spokane was a lovely quiet place to end the trip.
