National Bison Range, Montana

you have to be a certain kind of weird to find fairly dangerous gravel roads cut into the sides of almost mountains the highlight of a road trip. i’m that kind of weird but with a side of crippling fear of heights. 

I’ve been less afraid on tornado warned storms than when we stopped on the edge of what looked like certain death if you ventured a half a foot from the road to take some pictures of the remarkable view. a place so beautiful you can shoot in the high sunlight and it’s still wildly dramatic. 

Butte and the Bison range are fighting it out in my mind for top spot in montana but I can tell you if I lived near this range I’d have to budget for daily trips onto the switchbacks and death roads. to watch sunsets, sunrises, storms bubble up and lumber on would be a life worth living. 

oh, and monstrous shaggy beasts for good measure.

oh wow this is so beautiful.
