Wow, what a ride.  A great trip and many thanks for taking us along. 

 

For future reference, Jackson HS and Elkhorn HS in the Big Hole and Grasshopper Valley, respectively, are developed soaks with food and lodging.  Elkhorn can be hit or miss as a WTW'er unfortunately discovered a couple of years ago, but at times it's fine. Sharkey's HS just over Lemhi Pass is developed to the extent the BLM has built two concrete pools and changing houses/bathrooms but it.s a nice wide open setting. All 3 are drive-ups.

 

Great to see the pastries at Wheat, Montana also!

Foy, I owe a big part of it to you. The Gravelly Range Road was awesome and a real treat. Thanks, jd

Yes, wow what a ride! Great to see you with your fly rod on some of the classic trout  rivers of the West. Cool! Seeing your travels makes us want to hop into the truck and camper right now. Thanks for allowing us to come along!

You're entirely too kind.  I enjoy preaching the gospel of Southwestern Montana/Big Hole/Bannack/Beaverhead-Deerlodge NF almost as much as I enjoy visiting it.  Glad it was of some assistance to you and SueB.
