Montana - Idaho November 2010

Travelling through Montana and Idaho was a relocation day as part of travelling west to the Pacific coast.  From the north of Yellowstone NP in Wyoming to Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, on the border with Washington State. We stayed at Bozeman in Montana, just north of Yellowstone, on Interstate 90, thereafter following the highway as the only clear route through the Rockies. 

North from Yellowstone NP.  Easy rolling  extensive grazing land.


Soon changes to wilderness for much of the area as we move into National Forest land.


With occasional towns and good eating houses.


However the mountain passes are not very high at 4726 feet (1440m) compared with other passes.
Frequent warnings for trucks seemed to have little effect on their continued operation.


A great welcome!  In the D'Alene Mountains about an hour from our stop for the night at Coeur d'Alene.
