Absolutely beautiful area!
I'd rather have a bad day hunting than a good day working!

It's a little cabin sitting on the right just before the downtown area. I'm sure your friend who lives there knows where. And, yes, you will really like Beartooth pass into Wyoming if you go to the Park that way. we will look for it tonight when we go to town I did make it by the Grizzly in Roscoe today ![[Linked Image]](http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p151/Steve_NO/montanaday2013_zps05872d07.jpg)

If you get a chance run over to Cody for the Buffalo Bill Museum. Pretty cool.

fished the Stillwater today, ended up with about twenty rainbows and browns...all pretty small. this one is typical: ![[Linked Image]](http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p151/Steve_NO/montanaday2002_zps260963c9.jpg) had a nice twelve mile float, stopped to wade half a dozen times. guide had a little lunch fixed....kind of fancy. I'm used to wiping the speck slime off my hand on my shirt and grabbing a sandwich while casting with the other hand but these guys do it up right: ![[Linked Image]](http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p151/Steve_NO/montanaday2004_zpsaa22f43c.jpg) pretty country the river rolls through ![[Linked Image]](http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p151/Steve_NO/montanaday2006_zpse20aa1c7.jpg) the day was hot and the wind blew pretty good at times but all in all a really great way to spend a day...sure beats working ![[Linked Image]](http://i127.photobucket.com/albums/p151/Steve_NO/montanaday2010_zps1f76d18c.jpg)

Did you get a cap that say's "where the hell is Roscoe"? Really looks like you guys are having a great time and great weather to have it in. The Stillwater is a beautiful river is it not? Let the good times keep rolling......

I'm envious but glad that you are getting a chance to get away. I have to say that I absolutely love the way your friend fixed up the cellar/firepit/deer bushwack area. I'd be found there regularly if I had one like that. Very cool.

Looks like a fine trip, I'm envious  And I have to think that town had very little crime, when they had a marshall named Jeremiah "liver eatin'" Johnson

That is pretty customary here, especially in the back country. Wouldnt do it in YNP though! Watch for griz in Slough Creek, you'll often see them on the surrounding hills in both the Lower and Upper Meadows...

So we hang our heads and change from the excited "Woo-Hooo...leaving for Montana" to the sad, sad "Boo-Hooo...Leaving Montana."

A couple of ice cold Moose Drools to go along with the evening Scotch & cigar sounds pretty good!

JC stop pussyfootin' around already; you can go a lot further than ankle deep y'know!  The current is blowing out of the river into the lake there....you couldn't stand up if you stepped off into the waist deep water, or I would have been creeping up on them Time to be learning the "controlled skidder". Prof. McManus has a tutorial out... Only if you're wearing Tenner shoes!

Hey Steve,
See anything exciting today? Time for a report.
