We drove part way up Lulu Pass today to get views from on high. We saw an incredible display of wildflowers (photos to come later…) and views of surrounding peaks that we can’t see from down in the valley or from the campground. The photo above is a panorama comprised of four photos “sewn” together. The two jagged-looking peaks on the left are Pilot and Index. Pilot is just over 11,700 feet high. The road to Lulu Pass is one of the highest roads in Montana and the pass tops out at 9,846 feet. I intend to try riding my mountain bike up Lulu Pass road. It will be a tough ride!
Today was another day without seeing any wolves. We went to a Slough Creek pull-out again and saw a pair of American Coot parents feeding four young amongst the grasses that line the creek. Mike made a video that he will post tomorrow.
BTW, you can enlarge/expand any photo (except the panorama) on the blog by clicking on it and then clicking on the “Expand the image” icon in the upper right.
