Marty’s photo of the day #4784: When Deb and I rented a U.S. Forest Service Cabin on the east fork of the Bitterroot River early last week, rain kept us inside much of the time. Since we enjoy hiking up the gulches in the area, when the sun briefly came out, we took advantage of […]

Apocalypse Cabin
Marty’s photo of the day #4471: Each summer, Deb and I rent at least one U.S. Forest Service Cabin, and last week we rented the Canyon Creek Cabin in the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest (west of Melrose, Montana). One Montana cabin tradition that sickens me is that quite literally every cabin has skulls and bones hanging […]
Like the old summer cabin
Marty’s photo of the day #3911: Deb, Nellie, and I are returning to Montana’s Prairie Reserve this summer. We reserved the same yurt as last year, but for a longer stay. Being able to rent a yurt kind of reminds me of when I was a kid in Minnesota and having the family cabin to […]
Wind Camp
Marty’s photos of the day #3730-3736: Deb, Nellie, and I stayed in three places while visiting Montana’s American Prairie Reserve. Our middle stay—two nights in a cabin at Antelope Creek Campground—was our least favorite. There the days were so windy that we renamed the location “Wind Camp.” Even so, we still enjoyed our visit.

Even so, sometimes we just have to kick back and watch the world go by. Two weekends ago we backpacked six miles into a remote mountain cabin, which […]
The GOP’s Montana cabin
Marty’s photo of the day #3640: If you follow political news, you’ve probably read that Arizona Republicans have clandestinely moved copies of their state’s 2020 election data to a remote cabin in Montana for “auditing.” Yeah, it’s always Montana. Many have speculated about the location of the cabin, but I have found it! Shhhh! “Important, […]
Dogs don’t understand art
Marty’s photo of the day #3133: Years ago, Deb and I spent a weekend at a Forest Service cabin, somewhere in Montana. As we were cleaning up to leave, I got the idea to try and do a Montana version of the American Gothic painting. Rule #1: Dogs don’t understand art and will destroy every […]
You can see two Montana towns from here
Marty’s photo of the day #2220: I didn’t post a photo of the day yesterday, as I was Internet free for the weekend. On Saturday, Deb and I took our granddaughter, Fiona, to the Douglas Creek Cabin, which is a Forest Service cabin near Hall, Montana. Then, on Sunday, my son Sean and his wife, […]
