We saw Trapper Peak this morning.
In the afternoon, we crossed Lost Trail Pass (6,990 feet) and Chief Joseph Pass (7,241 feet.) Lost Trail Pass marked the border between Montana and Idaho, so, just for fun, we walked across the border back into Idaho. We crossed the Continental Divide for the first time as we rode over Chief Joseph Pass.
We got a late start this morning, so we didn't make it over the second pass until after 5:00.
We were looking for a place to camp, but it was impossible with all of the melting snow. We decided to push it the additional 25 miles to Wisdom. Even though it was late, we stopped briefly to check out the Big Hole National Battlefield, where we saw some impala (look in the picture on the right.)
Wisdom is a tiny town in the Big Hole Valley. We didn't arrive there until a little before 9:00. Thankfully, there was a cafe that was still open. She normally closed at 8:00, but she was kind enough to serve us a meal. Now, we are camped at the American Legion Park. Tomorrow we will have two more passes to cross.
