Musings from the last best place - Thoughts on living and working in Montana

Silver Gate, Montana - Mountain Mist

We enjoy spending time in Silver Gate, a small town just outside the northeast entrance to Yellowstone National Park. Whether winter or summer, the solitude and peacefulness of this place is a welcome respite from life in the big city of Bozeman. OK - maybe Bozeman's not the big city, but living and working in Bozeman with an option to retreat to Silver Gate is not a bad setup.

The mountains across the valley from Mt. Republic are particularly rugged. With a spotting scope, you can sometimes spot goats on the mountainside. I took this shot on a rainy, misty morning from the cabin's back deck. Shot with my 40-150mm at 74mm, f11 for 1/20 sec.
