The last month has definitely flown by, a common occurrence for us here in Montana. We endure the long winter patiently (and sometimes not so patiently) so we can enjoy the beauty that is Montana Summer. Like most years, there's a laundry list of things to do... float the Dearborn, float tube Clark Canyon Reservoir, backpack into Slough Creek in Yellowstone, go up to Glacier National Park for the weekend, hike up to Pine Creek Lake, go to Targhee Bluegrass Festival, and the list goes on...
And here we are, in mid-July, and there are still a lot of things left on the list! It's actually been so hot around here that backpacking seems a little rediculous unless you gain a good deal of elevation...it's been 100 - 107 in Bozeman for the past 10 days or so! In any event, the past month has been very busy at Powderfin.com, but we've managed to have a great time as well. I had some visitors in town for about a week, which allowed me to get some great river time in on the Missouri and the Yellowstone. Here are some pictures from some recent floats.....

out of the boat.
Right before the warm streak hit us....the last glimpse of snow in Paradise Valley.
4th of July on the Yellowstone River...not a bad spot for reflection.
