Thursday. Another 72 miles, ennis to Dillon, Montana. 144 miles in two days. everyone is tired. Today started with a 10 mile uphill pull. Not real steep but at 3 to 5 percent grad for that long takes a lot out of the legs. The climb took us up to about 6500 feet then we had a quick descent and stayed relatively flat down at around 5000 feet. The landscape changed dramatically. Irrigated grasslands everywhere with grazing cattle, horses, and sheep. Much of the day was spent following exactly in the footsteps of lewis and clark. Pretty cool. In some of the areas there’s so little development that it probably doesn’t look much different than it did in 1804. Another milestone today with crossing the 3000 mile mark. 1300 to go.
