Went Saturday and came home Sunday - ends this upcoming Sunday (6/29). Not much was happening yet, but it was nice to get away and spend time with friends.

Looks like a great camping spot and place to spend a little time. Any trout in that stream?

Yes - that is the Bitterroot River. I've seen all few fish come out and good-sized too (12" or so).
Beautiful property - private ranch, also where we hold the Boy Scout Rendezvous each year.
You wouldn't know that we are a couple hundred yards from the highway. On rare occasions you can hear a car or see lights through the trees.

They had a whisky tent - the keg you see contained rum. It's twin contained a brown ale brewed by one of the guys - aged in a Bourbon keg and was delicious. The shrub (9 varieties) don't arrive til mid week.

Do you and your friends do these types of camps in hunting season? It’d be a great experience to have the butchering, hide working etc. at a rendezvous.

They are butchering a Bison on-site on Thursday. The meat will be auctioned and suspect some will be used during the community feed Thursday night. Maybe boudains...?
We do hunting camps in a primitive setting and sometimes even hunt. No time to do anything else during hunting season. There usually are demonstrations during events such as this.

<abbr>Lewis and Clark went through the Bitterroots. Beautiful country out that way. Is the location close to the trail?

This location is about 25-30 miles south of Traveler's Rest and Lolo pass where the expedition went through.
