Popular Post Scrapr ★ Posted May 28, 2017 Popular Post Share #1 Posted May 28, 2017 Memorial Day is the time the local DOT tries to get the road up to the high mountain lakes open. They block it at the ski resort about Thanksgiving. There are a ton of lakes mostly no motors so quiet. And hiking trails that are well used. I was thinking last night it would be fun to go up and do a short hike. So i checked the DOT page Not yet. Maybe by July 4th? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheep_herder ★ Posted May 28, 2017 Share #2 Posted May 28, 2017 I don't know for certain, but they may still be working on opening some of the roads in Montana. I know the recent storms caused some activity. Is your friend's son still on the police force in Miles City? We have a close friend that just started on the force last autumn. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if he is still on the force. He was going back and forth to the Middle East as security. Lots more money I suppose. I don't see him on the roster of the MCPD. Last i heard he had bought a house in MC and was looking for a rental to buy as well. But if he was going to be gone for months at a time it might be a difficult staffing situ I'll ask next time i talk/text Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F_in Ray Of Sunshine Posted May 29, 2017 Share #5 Posted May 29, 2017 Cool - literally. ? There's a road here that follows the bottom of a deep ravine. It's narrow and twisty and the trees form a vegetable tunnel. It's only open seasonally. About halfway up, there's a gate. It still said "closed" when I tried to go up it in May, a couple of years ago. All the snow elsewhere was long gone, so I said "Oh, that's stupid......I'm going up." I got to the gate (where there were several young men parked in an SUV, looking mighty guilty - 'It's ok boys, you can exhale, I know what you're up to...") and went around the end. I got about 50' up the road and around the first bend. Then I turned around and went back down. Yeah, there was still 3' of snow on the road. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
