Day 19 Chester to Chinook, Montana

81.60 Miles, 1118 Feet. We continued our journey across Montana on Hwy 2. The scenery this morning was much the same as the last couple of days. It seems like there are more grain silos than people here. In the distance, we saw the Bear Paw Mountains. Otherwise, it was once again grains, plains, and trains. There were several small towns along the way.

As we approached mile 60 we reached the city of Havre, and the scenery changed dramatically. The terrain has a badland character with high slopes. The Milk River runs through town and is a tributary of the Missouri River which lies to the south the Bear Paw Mountains. Harve is the largest town in this part of the states due is in the center of the High Line which is the railroad that follows Hwy 2 and the US/Canadian border.

Today was hot, long, and windy. Tomorrow we head to Malta and a much needed rest day on Tuesday.Läs mer
