There is just no way to convey the vastness of the countryside views of Montana in photos. You can only see what the lens is showing you and not the peripheral vision that you are taking in as you shoot the shot. But....for what it's worth, here's some Big Sky Montana photos....

These are just samples of the many many vistas we've seen over the past month as we traveled around Montana. You can see why it's called "Big Sky Country".
This is why we like the West so much. As the song says, "I like those WIDE OPEN SPACES!".
Our journey so far....16 stops in red. The dark stars are the stop yet to come.
