We took a trip up to Montana and the scenery is just spectacular. I thought I’d share.

Absolutely stunning. Guess you’re really not coming back for the 80 degree weather this weekend?!

Thats awesome!!

We spent some time at Flathead 2 summers ago, amazing place!! I swear we saw more planes than we did boats while we were out on the lake! We have some cousins that live there right on the lake, on the east side pretty much directly across from wild horse island.

Were you flying multiple different planes? Looks like most of the footage you can see the prop, but then the footage of that one plane is a rear prop?

We flew up in the Cirrus. The Petrel /seaplane is in my hanger up here.

Five hours at 90 knots

There has been lots and lots of weather systems rolling through. IMC almost every day, depending on the altitudes.
Travel early is your best bet. Try to avoid afternoon build ups.

Nice. Planning a Montana Rv vacation for next year. Looks amazing.

So is this a bison “hunting” ranch? Always wanted a full wooled buffalo and make a cape from it and have a freezer full of meat. Had a buffalo prime rib in Jackson Hole last year and it was amazing.

It's been a cool June. Not cool in a good way. Rain is normal, but I wish it was a little warmer. :(

Paul, you are fortunate enough to own all different styles of planes, if you had to get rid of all but one plane which one would you keep. Reason why you might pick this one piticular plane?

I cannot wait to get up there!! We start our RV trip Saturday morning!! See ya’ll soon!
We got space if you need a stop in Polson. 50amps, but no sewer. The campgrounds are looking less crowded than normal this year, so you should have a fighting chance at reservations. Enjoy the trip.
