Day 25: The Bitterroot Valley

Sunday
Straight forward day today, drive down to Lolo, turn right and follow the Bitterroot Mountain South to Sula. We had a pleasant drive, while Sally took some nice photos of the mountains. Low cloud meant that we could not see the full splendour of the Bitterroot Mountains. These are the range of mountains that Lewis and Clark tried to find a passageway through, but could not, though they ranged south along the Bitterroot River for more than eighty miles trying to find one. On reaching the southern end of the Bitterroot Valley we parked up round the back of the Sula General Store, right next to a pretty little lake.

In the evening I went out with Roy and Anne to have a look at wildlife at sunset, only there wasn't any apart form some white tailed deer. Round the lake and a nearby stream though there were a variety of squirrels, Stellar Jay and evidence of beaver.
