Day 67 West Yellowstone, Montana to Ennis, Montana 116km

Stephan left us this morning and caught a bus to Helena before heading back to New York. The scenery was stunning again today. We passed through an area which was hit by a huge earthquake in 1959 which killed 28 people. The quake caused a huge landslide which blocked a river and caused a lake. This new lake is called earthquake lake. We spent the rest of day traveling through the beautiful Madison River valley to Ennis where we are staying for the night.
