Took
a
four
day
trip
to
Kentucky
and
Nashville
lately
and
the
first
stops
were
Whiskey
Distilleries.
One
at
Buffalo
Trace
and
One
at
Makers
Mark.
The
Buffalo
Trace
one
was
free
and
the
Maker's
Mark
one
was
$12.
Both
had
tastings
at
the
end.
Buffalo
Trace
had
a
impressive
showcase:

On
my
last
night
back,
I
slept
at
the
rest
stop
at
Painted
Canyon
in
North
Dakota.
It
was
a
late
moonset
but
the
stars
were
beautiful
as
was
and
landscape
of
painted
Canyon.

Upon
leaving
Helena,
my
last
stop
was
the
Elkhorn
Mountains
and
the
ghost
town
that
is
located
there.
The
ghost
town
is
the
remains
of
a
old
late
1800s
mining
town.
It
is
also
the
trailhead
to
Elkhorn
and
Crow's
Peak.
Here
is
the
frat
house
of
Elkhorn:
And
another
cabin.

After
driving
through
the
NWT,
Alberta,
and
Montana
for
two
days,
I
finally
came
to
the
town
of
Helena.
Helena
is
on
the
border
of
where
the
Rocky
Mountains
Meet
the
Badlands
of
Eastern
Montana
and
has
great
scenery.
If
you
go
there
I
suggest
you
climb
Mount
Helena
and
Mount
Ascension.

Its a 1900km drive from Yellowknife, Northwest Territories to Helena, Montana and there some good scenery on the way. Here what it looked like right before I cross the Alberta/Montana Border.
And after I crossed it was just as great:
As get closer to Helena, it gets more mountainous.
The
Ingraham
Trail
is
70km
long
and
has
many
scenic
spots.
The
two
I
want
to
discuss
are
Prelude
Lake
and
Cameron
Falls.
Prelude
Lake
is
a
large
lake
that
is
still
frozen
at
the
end
of
may
and
has
great
overlooks
from
the
nature
trail.

After
several
days
on
the
road,
I
finally
come
to
Yellowknife,
the
Capital
of
the
Northwest
Territories,
where
in
June,
the
sun
never
sets.
Some
things
you'll
want
to
see
in
Yellowknife
are
the
legislative
building
and
the
Prince
of
wales
Northern
Heritage
Center.

In
the
land
of
the
midnight
sun,
it
never

darker
than

It
is
a
land
of
lakes,
swamps,
and
waterfalls.

After
saying
goodbye
to
Alberta,
we
head
into
the
Northwest
Territories.
The
sign
marking
the
border
was
one
of
the
biggest
I've
ever
seen
for
a
state
line.

On
the
road
past
Alberta,
I
stopped
at
Lesser
Slave
Lake
Provincial
Park
and
then
stopped
at
Hutch
Lake
to
camp
for
the
night.
Lesser
Slave
lake
was
nice
but
it
would
be
nicer
if
it
wasn't
cloudy:
