Why I Visited Butte, Montana in Tribute to the Unconventional Aspirations of Evel Knievel

August 12, 2022

Montana, Travel

The four-hour drive from Idaho Falls to Helena, Montana, driving up Interstate 15, didn’t promise to be that picturesque. I could have taken a more scenic route, but I had a stop to make at the grave of a person I’d never met. When I left Idaho Falls, I drove into dark skies with forming clouds and a light sprinkle. I sighed heavily at the thought of navigating through the Montana rain. Just the week before, I’d driven to Bozeman,...

Walking around Helena, Montana, I couldn’t help but think about the small town it was 100 years ago. Though, technically it’s not that small, not anymore.

Most of us assume that you will see animals in Yellowstone, but the truth is the park is big, probably much bigger than you think. Many people stay on...

I spent a day at the Yellowstone hot springs, taking in the many thermal pools and soaking up the hot Sulphur breezes. They say that hot springs have healing properties, but these are more likely to boil you alive. Still, I wonder about the benefits to my skin from standing alongside so many of them throughout the day? Even though you can’t soak in these springs like others, there are still benefits, but they can only be applied like a...

If you’re a lover of the outdoors, you’ve heard of Jackson Hole, Wyoming and the Grand Tetons. It’s a place where the old west isn’t that old and the mountain ranges call you home. There aren’t many people, but any lack is made up for with mountains, streams, wildlife, and the joy of a quiet country road. I was staying within a few hours’ drive, so I took a day to explore Jackson Hole and the Grand Teton National Park....
