Glacier NP & Canada; Day 4

At 8:30 we were rocketing west on I-94 from Dickinson, ND.  It was 59 degrees under mostly blue clear skies.  At exit 32 we stopped at the Painted Canyon area of Theodore Roosevelt National Park and walked the nature trail.  It was a muddy mess in places due to recent rains, but we enjoyed the views and found fall foliage in display.

Our next stop was the South Unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park off I-94 exit 27 (Medora, ND).  We drove the 36 mile scenic loop and stopped at several view points for more walking and pictures.

Just before leaving the park we encountered a lone bison at the edge of the road.
Besides the bison we saw two deer in a ravine and a butt load of prairie dogs.

We hopped back on I-94 westbound and stopped at exit 1 for a late lunch at Subway.  Back on I-94 we entered Montana and continued to exit 211 where Highway 200S took us to Circle.  Highway 13 was our route north to Wolf Point, MT, where we stopped for the night at the Sherman Inn.

We rode 245 miles today and our high temperature was 71.  Another pretty day.
