Bilbo: “I want to see mountains again, mountains Gandalf…” I feel like Bilbo, and, miss the beauty of Montana. Taken this past summer.

I wrote about our recent trip to Montana here. This was taken after we took a truck ride up to the top of a mountain (I think it was called Granite Peak).

Custer National Forest

This was taken during a hike in the Woodbine Campground Area of the Custer Naitonal Forest. We hikle a little over a mike to a spectacular view of a waterfall in the mountians. You can read about this area here.

We have finished our work with campers who are in the foster care system of the state of Montana. We had a wonderful experience loving on these children and enjoying the activities with them. The state of Montana partners with Beartooth Mountain Christian Ranch to provide a camping experience for kids in their foster care system. It was also a bittersweet time, knowing that many of these campers are in hard circumstances in their young lives. We are grateful for the opportunity to serve and hope to return next year. This year we took an extra day in our schedule to enjoy this part of the world. This was taken during a hike in the Woodbine Campground Area of the Custer National Forest. We hiked a little over a mile to a spectacular view of a waterfall in the mountains.
