My Montana Trip

I left Connecticut on September 20th via Amtrak for a trip to Montana. I arrived in Whitefish and then traveled to Thompson Falls, Missoula, Butte, Helena, back to Butte, Bozeman, Billings, Big Timber, Great Falls, and then returning to Whitefish for my trip back home.

I met so many wonderful people and interviewed sheriffs, a coroner, a Montana highway patrolman, a police chief, and an organization that works with Native Americans.

I saw Kootenai Falls, the Swinging Bridge, Ross Creek Cedars, the Continental Divide, the Cathedral of Saint Helena, the Museum of the Rockies, Virginia City (a working ghost town), Pictograph State Park, the Rimrocks, Little Bighorn National Battlefield, the Crazy Mountains, the Missouri Breaks, Marias Pass (elevation 5,216 feet), and Glacier Park.

The picture on the home page of my blog is one that I took while at the eastern portion of Glacier Park. More pictures can be found on my home page in the slide show titled, "My Montana Photos".

I returned to Connecticut on October 14th with over 1,500 photos, dozens of video clips, hundreds of memories, and a lasting impression of the land where my novels take place.
