It All Started with the "M"

Colter and I were planning on camping on Saturday, but the weather didn't look like it would cooperate, so I began making a mental list of places we could go hiking around Bozeman, maybe hit the Bozeman Hot Springs on Sunday. While I was making breakfast, Colter asked, "can we hike up to the 'M' today, Dad?" I thought, why not? While we were coming down, I decided we were going camping no matter what the weather was. We have been trying to get out of town for the last four weeks, and I decided we were going. Once we got down, it was a quick trip to the library for some books for Colter, and a quick trip to the grocery store. We were on our way out of town and headed towards Red Lodge by 3:00. He didn't quite make it to Red Lodge, but he's turning out to be a great traveller.

Here's Colter's first trip over the Beartooth Pass. There's another one coming soon, since there was so much fog (well, at 10,000 feet, more like clouds, really), that he didn't get to see much when we were at the top.
