Oh yeah the road trip, we left Jackson Hole, Wy with our winter gloves and heated jackets on; we could see our breath.  After 11 hours we were in Missoula, Montana having travelled 620 kms through the mountains of Wyoming, the potato fields of Idaho and the ranches of Montana.  We went through dry grasslands and then followed the Salmon River through rich hay fields where the herds of horses and cows were grazing.  Descending  from the National Forest into the Missoula low lands it was HOT, 92 degrees when we got into the City.
