Got up this morning in Kalispell, Montana and left at 6 for the first day on the Continental Divivde Trail. Got on the trail and traveled south getting to Butte, Montana around 7 pm. Very long day to be riding off-road. We covered around 404 miles today. I'm reluctant to say we were lost today but we certainly were misoriented a great deal. We turned and twisted, and turned around over and over. We allowed ourselves to try to navigate with the gps and didn't check the map often enough. We finally did find our way out of the maze of fire roads, trails, and access roads. We drug our tired, dusty asses into Wendy's in Butte and had some dinner just before the sun set. Very glad we didn't have to find our way out after dark!
We stopped along the way for lunch at a place called "The Stray Bullet Cafe". Very neat and clean place with great food. Jack and Bill had cheesburger chowder and both agreed it was awesome. I'm trying to attach a picture of the place. It is located in Ovando, Montana.
