I stumbled onto Lost Creek State park, which features the 50 foot waterfall, aptly named Lost Creek Falls. Only a few miles off my path up Interstate 90, near Anaconda, MT, I pulled in to see the sights and snap a few photos. Even though Montana, at least the few...
A few miles East of Butte, Montana is the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest. I spent the night at the Homestake Trailhead (exit 233 of Interstate 90) which just happens to be the Continental Divide trail. There is clear boondocking to the North of the Interstate and even a small lake, but...
As I was driving through Whitehall Montana I stopped to rummage through a pawn shop in the center of town while a rain shower passed. Upon exiting the store, I was met by a soaking wet miniature Schnauzer who sought shelter from the rain under my legs. I snatched her...
Just 3 miles north of West Yellowstone, Baker’s Hole Campground fit my need for a place to stay the night. Baker’s Hole consists of 73 campsites all within a short walk to the Madison River… and honestly, if I could cross the river, I’d be back within the Yellowstone National...
Just across the road from the Teton National Park, up an unmarked gravel road leading into the forest, is one of the best boondocking locations I have ever been too. I’ve camped here before, back in June of 2011, and enjoyed it so much I was happy to repeat the...

With Conor leaving early Thursday morning, it gave me the day to get some things done from my to-do list that I have been building up. All are small items that will just make my life easier as I get back on the road under my current circumstances. A simple...
Wednesday morning, after waking early, completing my morning work load and grabbing a quick breakfast, I jumped on my bike to go for a ride. Instead of the normal dirt road or trail, I opted for asphalt this trip. Hwy 191 runs North and South through the Grand Teton Nation...
Today, while lounging in the shade of the van’s awning, I made a new friend; a tiny butterfly that visited with my a few times over the afternoon. I decided to name him Jorge. He was quite persistent at hanging out with me. He sat here on my fist for...
On the way up to Teton National forest, I stumbled upon the grave of Sacajawea, who has to be the most amazing woman of all history. I’ve always been amazed by her accomplishments; traveling on foot for thousands of miles with an infant child… so to be able to see...
