West Yellowstone, MT

We made the trek south on US 287 today from Helena to West Yellowstone.  Started out looking  like really flat land with mountains in the distance.  Very, very sparse country side.  Then all of a sudden there were trees on the hillsides.  Then the hills turned into mountains. We stopped at the crest of one of the mountains and the wind was blowing so hard it could almost knock you off your feet.  We are in the West Yellowstone KOA campground. Looks to be a good campground as they have mini golf !!!  We will be taking a guided tour of Yellowstone on the 28th and the 29th.  My bandwidth here is really slow and uncertain so I will have to post pictures at a later time.
