This past weekend was spent at Sunlight Lake in the Crazy Mountains. Ten Bozemanites and six dogs made the trek into one of the more isolated mountain ranges in the area. We left Friday evening and made a quick stop at the Bank Bar in Wilsall for some pub 'n' grub. After the last pitcher of beer was finished we headed to the trailhead to camp for the evening. Our impatient animals awoke us early the next morning. After refueling and packing our gear, we finally set off with wind at our backs and the sun in our faces. The hike was relatively short (4 miles) but the vertical gain was over 2,000 feet. Everybody's dogs were barking when we got to our final campsite for the night.
Seriously. It's an old bank.
This tent is not big enough for the three of us.
Ready to go.
