Guess the spot

[Absarokanaut]

Wrong water course but right state. This CREEk flows into a famous River named not for it's geologic age but for its disovery by pioneers.

OK I might not get back here until tomorrow. I guess this wasn't fair but thought there'd be a boater out there that remembered this drop on GLADE CREEK. Rockskipper you can choose something else.

This is a reservoir, not a natural lake. It's a haven for rattlers and moskies. It's the kind of place you stay on the way to someplace else, not really a destination, unless you're a local and like boating. I'm sure many of you have a driven by it a number of times, and maybe even camped there overnight, since it's free. Not in Utah.

Ririe?

Keep going north.

Keep going north.

Hebgen? I'm not too confident in that one though because this one seems to have less trees. But maybe.

 

[Rockskipper]

Well, you're now in the right state, but way too far east. This really isn't on the way to Yellowstone, but to points further northwest. For example, you would be likely to take this route to get to Glacier from SLC.

Clark Canyon Reservoir???

That's me pulling up a map and following I-15 north since I would want to be booking it to Glacier

 

[Rockskipper]

Yes, that's it, and you're up, @Scott Chandler

 

[Scott Chandler]

Oh neato! Funny, I've been on that I-15 "SW to Glacier" trip so many times over my life and do not remember Cross Canyon at all. Shame, because it looks quite lovely.

Yes I seem to have caught an insomnia bug...

I guess this can be next.

Scott, it's the big reservoir just south of Dillon a few miles.

Meh, you're not missing much...although the Beaverhead River below the reservoir is world class fly fishing.

True, the Beaverhead produces more large brown trout than any other river in Montana.

I'm only kidding...actually Clark Canyon reservoir is a pretty cool place, but like you said for most people it is just a place to pass on your way through SW Montana. We'd spent a few weekends camping down there when I was a kid.

Name the road where this picture was taken.

Every time I've camped there, always on my way through, I've been eaten alive by mosquitoes. I've also seen rattlers in the grasses there more times than one. It's actually not my favorite place to stop, but I do like it from the perspective that it means I'm close to Dillon. I kind of like that little town for some reason.

 

[Rockskipper]

Smokey Hollow Road?

 

[Michael]

Sorry no,
The road is in the east of the monument and an adult is there.
