US HWY 89 and MT HWY 49
Continuing up MT HWY 49 to its juncture with US HWY 89, grand vistas of fall colors spread over the hillsides, top left and above. Divide Peak (?) peeks over a colored wall of trees, left. Descending toward Saint Mary, on US HWY 89, top right, smoke from a forest fire drifts over Saint Mary Lake and the mountains to the west. Going to the Sun Mountain is on the right, Red Eagle Mountain on the left. Photography would be a challenge for my current visit. On two prior trips, I experienced varied weather; torrential cloud bursts alternated with bright sunshine and puffy cumulus clouds. I've decided that most visitors will experience the same; so show them the worst!
