These are fire weed near the top of the pass.
Today we crossed most of the state of Montana, following along the serene Yellowstone River and tracing the path of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. We stopped to learn about Pompey's Pillar, which contains the only actual physical trace of the expedition, Clark's engraved name on the sandstone. These high plains are lovely and at times we could picture them back in the early 1800's. Tonight we are staying in Glendive, MT and will go to church here. It has been a great trip so far.
Here is the view of Pompey's Pillar, it looks over the Yellowstone River and is now a peaceful spot, inhabited by National Monument personnel.
Tomorrow, after church, we plan to venture into North Dakota, home of the Bad Lands.
