Ara,
I see you found one of my favorite campgrounds, Logging Creek in Montana. I am originally from Great Falls and spent a lot time in those mountains. I think every time I stayed at that spot I was the only camper there. You were very close to another attraction
Lick Creek Cave link while camped there. It is semi secret/hard to find and has an "interesting" descent but is very intriguing. (Spirit would hate it)
Another interesting back road in that area is Divide Road which branches off near the top of Kings Hill, goes thru Logging Creek and eventually comes out near Great Falls. Miles and miles of beautiful country.
Happy trails.
Thanks for the info as we will go back in cooler weather. Love your Buddy driving there... Of course he drives!!! It is really a gem I felt finding. I did meet a local that told me about a place a bit further. However, I had never seen so many flies!!! Stay in touch...

The miles are running away as we dropped in the heat of July into Tucson for some matters I have to attend. No escape from this and already from a couple days in this urban space I am kicking the ground to get back up North in a few days, by the end of this coming week. The ride was uncommonly for us fast paced, we managed to stay at higher elevation and good fortune was with us even going through Moab with cooler temperatures. Amazing. I personally do not find any feat into running up the numbers on “Old Faithful”, I understand long distance riding is a flavor, it is a flavor we had to a bit taste while 1400 miles went by in three days. It was however a true feat and almost inexplicable feelings when I read on the way, on the first day while resting on the side of the road an e mail send to us (as Spirit is always included) which started as such...
“Ara
I love your website, pictures and Spirit. I too [as Lance did] have terminal cancer and when I am down, all I do is pull up your website. I’m sure Lance was thinking of you as I am of my children and try to encourage them to do all things right and true and keep the Lord in your day...”
Her name is “Jane” and she rode with us for the rest of the way with thoughts ambushing each other with no avail of rest, the impact turned the path upside down as here I was mildly putting it, a bit “unhappy” about our new course, how quickly I felt one can loose it's priorities when voicing such non important aspects of Life. The Journey, the writing, the photos, Spirit, Old Faithful, all the components seemed to have blossomed into others path and so well worth it if even it was to procure one smile,
“Jane's smile”. Be safe and well.
Peace, Love and Courage.
Ara & Spirit
