Wyoming Mountains

MountainMonday is hosted by the lovely @shasta

From Wisconsin, Wyoming is one of the nearest places to go to be in the mountains. You do have to drive across Southern Minnesota and all the way through the entire state of South Dakota, where you have to get off the 4 lane interstate highways to enjoy the beauty of those states.

These photos were taken in the northwest part of Wyoming near the Montana state line.

Being in the mountains is one of the best things I can imagine. There I can relax, forget and shut off the rest of the world 😉
Thanks a lot for sharing your beautiful memories @melinda010100 😊

You are very welcome @melinda010100 🙂
If I didn't have my beloved family, I would live somewhere on a mountain as a hermit with internet, I think 😉

Everything out west feels so big! And the air smells so clean! I do love being there. Before he got sick Jim and I had plans to rent a cabin and go out and spend a couple months during the summer. It's still fun to dream about!

I’m sorry you and Jim didn’t realize this dream, Melinda. Jim must have been a great adventurer and you had fun times together.

I don’t think you would really know a person until you spend a couple months in a cabin in Montana with them. ( jesting)

I know he was a wonderful companion and you miss him so much. 💕

Gorgeous captures, @melinda010100! While they're all excellent shots, I have to say that third one makes me feel like I'm actually there, looking around at all of nature's eye candy. Thanks for sharing these majestic mountains!

Long ago was in Yellowstone up near Gardiner was about as far north we got

I am not a mountain man but I recognize their beauty. I mostly remember the fresh, cold mountain air. $trdo

It would be a long drive, but I'm sure there are marvelous things to stop and see between here and there!

They are actually some here in Ontario. I found this link that lists them all. But they are not exactly walking distance, from Toronto, lol. https://traveltips.usatoday.com/famous-mountains-ontario-103105.html
I've been in Blue Mountains but I do not conciser it as mountains at all. However, it is a quite lovely sky resort.

I am happy to hear that Melinda! And I must agree, Ontario is beautiful. I just posed some picks from one of the farms around here. By the way, I saved a few for #featheredfriday 😄

What's wrong with driving through southern minnesota?! Lol, well yes. The highways and interstate cut straight across the flat, featureless plains. Unless you're really interested in endless fields, it can be pretty drab.

Nice photos of the mountains. Did you stop in the Black Hills on your way out there? The Badlands are also fascinating, but very desolate.

I really miss living in Ronda, where I could see the mountains from my doorstep.

Except for stopping to see the Jolly Green giant, that MN I90 route is horribly long and boring. Finally arriving at the Missouri River is always a thrill!

I love the Black Hills, but especially love the Badlands!

I-90 goes pretty close to Pipestone, a national monument! :-)

Howdy Melinda! Those are indeed amazing and majestic views! There are still so many areas out there with few people aren't there?

I was rather shocked at how much wilderness had disappeared from when I used to spend time out there in the late 70s. So many gravel roads are now paved and and new roads have been cut and bridges built in places that you couldn't easily drive to in the past.

Oh wow. I wonder if that is a good thing or a bad one? I guess it's good if you need better ways to get around the area.
