Inexorable

This place has an inexorable pull on me. Sunrises and sunsets are tough to beat here. In late Winter, the Milky Way crowns the Bridgers in a most deserving way. I see Elk, Deer and even Owls of various species here. I almost always hear Coyotes at this location. In the late Spring, it’s a great spot to find Pasque Flowers, one of my favorites. It is also my favorite place to photograph the Aurora. Nothing beats brilliant curtains of light over Bozeman's Bridger Mountains. Time spent here is good medicine.
