Day 24 Wolf Point to Sidney, Montana

94.78 miles, 1785 feet. Heat and wind made for an early start at 5:00 am. For the first 30 miles or so, we were off of Hwy 2 which made for a nice change. The landscape today had more contour than on previous days. By mile 40, we encountered some long climbs. We had a lunch (actually a brunch) stop at mile 47 in Culbertson. It was only 10:00 am, but it felt like noon. The Wild West Diner served up some great bacon and eggs.

We rode near the Missouri River several times today. The land near the rivers seems to be more fertile and green with a few trees. Otherwise it is grassland or barren hills as far as you can see.Leia mais
