Trekking South, Day Two

A good day of travel, crossing the border took a little more time than usual (they were very busy) but no issues at all. After travelling through some fairly flat grassland in northern Montana the landscape changes to small mountain ranges, which we know continues for the remainder of the trip. The whole trip is really beautiful driving up, down around the mountains and hills, dropping into valleys with mountains of various sizes, some covered with various vegetation from grasses, bushes and dotted with trees to bare volcanic rock and some are major outcroppings with very interesting rock formations. We travel through Great Falls where we change to Hwy 87 to travel east to Lewistown, MT, finding our way to the Hwy 87 interchange, this has always been a challenge, our GPS wants to take us on the wrong exit and the route is not well marked at all, but we made it, I was smart this trip and I marked on our road map the correct exit number to take or easiest route through Great Falls. We always use a road map as well as the GPS because you cannot always trust the GPS directions. We arrived at Lewistown late afternoon with plenty of time to set up, relax and enjoy our evening.
