    I don't think there's any of them real close, Neo. Missoula is about the closest, which is 2 hours, maybe a bit more.

    Thanks, HPD, that's what I thought, but figured I'd check. I'm up here for my Sis in laws 60th birthday and to scope out my future home site.
    That project'll be firing up in about 18 months.

    Is anyone even willing to admit to being close to Kalispell?

    The upside being that with your driving ability and medical conditions, you'd fit in just fine driving with Missoula county or Idaho plates on your car. If you couple that with what appears to be a mandatory smartphone in your hand at all times, and no sense of situational awareness, you'd be nigh on invisible in those areas.

    The drivers using those particular plates must surely be used to my scrambled profanity and randomly-orbital arm movements by now. :lol::);)

    Kalispell is a great jumping off point.
    Head north and west from there and you'll see some of the most beautiful country under The Big Sky. (IMHO)
    Up on the highline is Eureka, where I saw numerous Whitetail bucks with some of the most impressive headgear imaginable.
    Pass through Libby quickly (unless you've been vaccinated against mesothelioma) on your way to Troy.
    Thompson Falls, where the Bighorns literally graze by the roadside.
    I envy you being in that area at this time of year!

    Plus you are within striking distance of Polebridge, or even to make a Yak attack.

    I?m sorry we can?t extend an invite, Missoula would be an easy drive. My wife and I are in Las Vegas until late Monday. Give a heads-up the next time you plan to be in MT. ;)

    Very generous, Jim! Thanks!
    Here in about 18 months I plan to be here full time so maybe I can branch out more in my exploring, once I get the house built, that is.
