I used to live in the Black Hills of SD, and guided part-time for nine years in NW Wyoming, so I would agree with you. But...I've never met anyone like the folks I've met in north-central Montana. A mark above the rest, and I really like people in SD, WY, and AK in particular, that I spnd time with. Pretty wonderful, for sure.
And I agree completely with rattler's deer hunting description...just like where I hunt in the Breaks...
