Montana Road Trip

Joe and his friend Pam came to visit for a week. We took one road trip up to Philipsburg and beyond, looping around the Anaconda-Pintler Wilderness. Then we took a two-day tour up to Glacier NP, looping east and back down to Great Falls and Rock Creek, circumnavigating the Bob Marshall Wilderness. We had a fun time together and the scenery was fantastic.
