We all have a favorite hike that we try to return to each year. My favorite hike is Sheep Lake Trail. The trail is challenging; but, the rewards along the way and at the end are, in my opinion, more than worth it. If you love a little alpine lake fishing after a slog through fields of wild flowers, then this trail is for you. :)
A few late evening, summer rains muddied the Gallatin River a few days ago; but, the river is back in great shape once again. Get out there and enjoy a day of fly fishing! :)
The last week of July and the first week of August...This is the time to hike the Beehive Basin Trail. The wild flowers are abundant and in peak form. My only suggestion is that you get up there early in the day...In case you haven't noticed it's been a bit toasty around here, lately. Enjoy! :)
One of the first things you'll notice while fly fishing the Gallatin River mid-summer is the clarity of the water...It's amazing. Of course, in the heat of the day you'll want to hit the shadows along the banks and the deep pools. Trout don't like the sunshine. :)
Sweet peas...Plant them the first week in April and without fail they're always ready by the first week of August. You gotta love gardening in Bozeman...It's sweet! :)
