Cooke City Montana
We are currently on our mini honeymoon, starting in Cooke City Montana. Cooke City is near the northeast entrance to Yellowstone Park, and is the city with the highest elevation in Montana at 7200 feet. Given that, it is actually still very cold here and is SNOWING as we speak! This is actually pretty typical for a high mountain town, but for those of you from non-western locations, it is probably hard to imagine! We have a quaint room at a local lodge and will be heading to Yellowstone and Jackson Wyoming tomorrow. Given our remote location we also don't have any cell phone service either, although there is some internet. We saw a grizzly on our way to Cooke City too!
Right now we are off to explore the local stores here in Cooke City.
