What a beautiful campsite. We are 14 miles North of Dubois off of I15 on Forest Road 017. Not another camper anywhere. We had left Park City on Monday with a bit of a late start. We arrived at our campsite around 7 PM. We had an incredible bike ride/hike on Tuesday. We rode our bikes until the terrain was to steep and then used our new GPS to mark the spot where we ditched the bikes and continued on foot. After crossing the ridge and dropping down the other side, we had been paying attention to our GPS as we rounded a corner, Bob heard a deep woofing-snorting sound that continued 3 times as we were backing up slowly. This was the bears way of telling us we had come far enough so we heeded it's warning and continued walking backwards making noise as we retreated back to our bikes. This was a bike/ATV path on the Idaho Montana border. Bob will remind me to buy Bear Spray!!
Today is Wednesday the 23rd and we are in Dillon Montana. We plan to camp tonight in the Beaverhead Deerlodge National Forest which is West of Butte and Anaconda.
It is good to be on the road again.
