Day 64, Lewis and Clark Caverns SP, MT



A short driving day from Helena, MT, to Lewis and Clark Caverns State Park. The entrance to the Caverns is to the left of center of the photo below the ridge and the exit is about 300' lower down the mountain. 



We have a non-electric campsite, i.e. no hookups, and we are seeing how it is without A/C. Right now, it's 94°F but there is a gentle breeze and we are sitting outside under the awning. Could be worse. They said that we got the last available campsite but most of them are empty. When I asked the camp host about that she said that it'll probably be full by evening. We are thinking of staying an additional night but need to wait until checkout time before we can see what spots are available. They use some third party reservation company. Kind of an odd setup.

BTW, no Verizon and only AT&T 4G.

  1. Richard, I'm about 60 days behind on your trip, but can't wait to see where it takes the two of you next.

    1. I was wondering where you were going to go this summer. No posts mean no trip? Tomorrow we venture underground. At least it'll be cooler (50°F!)

  2. Wow Richard, already more than two months on the road... I have been temporarily off the grid, and obviously some catch-up to do.

    1. Two months. I think that I could do this for quite a while. I really enjoy traveling around and seeing new places. Actually, even old places are interesting.

  3. Hard to believe it has been two months already. You are really getting to see some beautiful areas though. Would be nice if temperatures dropped down into the 80's for you.

    1. The forecast is for it to be cooler today than yesterday. Right now, it's wonderful as long as you are in the shade.
