Day 22 - Travel Day to Fort Peck Dam, Montana


We departed from the Four Bears to clear skies and very little wind, unlike yesterday.  The road for the most part was smooth, but we did have some sections of construction.  Do we ever have a day without construction?

There were interesting stops on our route today like The Missouri-Yellowstone Confluence Interpretive Center, Fort Buford State Historic Site and Fort Union Trading Post.

Max enjoyed the Fort too











The staff treated all of us to a delicious pulled pork sandwich  and salad dinner.  Yum!  After dinner some of us drove across the dam and over to see the spillway at sunset.  Spectacular.
