In Helena, MT - The second part of our vacation.

 Well, here we are on day ten of our vacation. We are headed to the Helena area. It will be slim pickens where we choose to fish for several reasons. The first reason will be the water levels. There are areas that are closed to fishing. 

There are also Hoot Owl restrictions still on a few rivers. I will look at the current flows water levels and call a few fly shops. 

I have called a few shops and they appear to be closed or just busy. My Garmin 64sx is telling me the mountains that have snow on their tops are at 7000 asl (above sea level). Even the south faces of the mountains have their tops blanketed with snow. 

As we snake our way around Missoula you can see how the lack of water effects the landscape. I realize that a lot of this is in an arid and a steppe environment. In the Great Lakes we do not know how fortunate we are.  

We have arrived at Jacks daughters & sons-in-law house.  I am truly blessed to have such good friends. Their house is beautiful, and they have put so much work into making it their home its amazing.  The views they have all around there house are million-dollar views. 

I was looking at the night sky and I can clearly see the Milky-Way galaxy. I am working on some star light photo’s right now.   The night sky looks like something out of a sci-fi movie. I will share my photos of the stars tomorrow.
