Hello, we are back. Here is a beautiful scenery photo of the continental divide in Montana. This section of the continental divide is located in the Bob Marshall wilderness complex, which also contains the Scapegoat and Great bear wilderness. The continental divide runs from Alaska to Mexico, this short section called the Chinese Wall is a result of a thrust fault and is made of limestone. These limestone cliffs are one thousand feet in height and about thirteen miles long. It is the longest section of continuous cliff formation in the Rocky mountains. The views are breath taking when standing on top, and overwhelming when standing at the bottom looking up. This is something that only a few people are able to enjoy, if it excites you as much as it does us, the opportunity to visit this wonderful place should not be passed up. There are several ways to experience this unforgettable place. By air which is of course very easy, especially if you do not have the luxury of time. Just a few hours out of your day will fill your minds eye with a wide array of beautiful memories and your cameras memory full of beautiful scenery photos. Another way is a self guided tour using the many maintained and not so maintained trails the Bob Marshall wilderness has to offer. By horse back is a very enjoyable way to visit this extensive wilderness system. I have enjoyed all three methods and all are great. As our blog grows we will try to give you a photographic tour, which is the fourth way to visit this area. On horse back or by foot, if you have the opportunity, is the best way to see and experience the beautiful scenery and wildlife first hand. We are hoping to set up links to help you contact an outfitter that could guide you, as well as a link to provide you the opportunity to set up a scenic flight over the continental divide, or Glacier Park, or any other area that would be of interest to you to be able to see the beautiful scenery Montana has to offer. Through our photos you will see wildflowers, clear mountain lakes, moose, elk, and deer. You can visit our website, (montanaphotosandtreasures.com) to see more photos and we will be posting more as we blog along.
