Day 7 - Montana Roadtrip
The sun is out, but we both are suffering from "vacation hangover". I guess that means we're having a great time! After a slow start to the day, we hopped in the truck and set out to find Wade and Cliff Lakes.
After traveling past Hebgen Lake and Quake Lake, we turned onto a dirt road marked "Antelope Basin". Well, if nothing else, it sounded promising. We did see lots of Antelope but Keith decided we were heading the wrong direction if we were to find Wade Lake, so back to the highway. We headed back to Ennis and with the help of the GPS (see I told you I love to travel with this thing), we found some smaller unmarked lakes.
We followed the dirt road, crossed "Three Dollar Bridge" and finally found Wade Lake. After looking around for awhile, we went back to find Cliff Lake, then back to the highway, heading back to Ennis.
We stopped in Ennis for lunch at "The Sportsman Lodge". Our waitress had grown up in Ennis, so she could answer all our questions. After lunch, we headed back over Ennis Pass to Belgrade then down Highway 191, along the Gallitan River to Big Sky. It was a slow, lazy day. We enjoyed watching the canyon and the river and the hospitality of Ennis.
