Where to stay, where to stay? It is coming up to Labor Day weekend and sites are extremely difficult to get. We had stayed at Polson Motorcoach Resort previously and really enjoyed it but unfortunately they only allow Class A motorhomes. We tried and tried various national forest campgrounds, state

As we headed west on I-90 we stopped in Three Forks, Montana at Wheat Montana. Who can resist Wheat Montana when driving by? Well, obviously no one can. We went in, or should I say we tried to go in, but the line up to order was at least 40

While staying at Moose Creek Flat campground we took advantage of the proximity to Big Sky and decided to tour around some. It was about a 15 minute drive from the campground to the town center. Big Sky, with a population of around 3,000, is a resort town in the
