Walking Painted Horse (8/10/23)

Yesterday, Bob and I walked the Painted Horse Trail, which started in town, to the t intersection with the Triple Tree Trail that we had hiked the day before. We walked a total of about 8.4 miles with the out and back route. We didn’t go up a mountain, but we did climb just a bit from prairie to a ridge line and, like the prior day, encountered runners and bikers on the mostly narrow trail.

First signpost. We weren’t going to the summit again,
just to the t intersection between the 2 trails.
Our hike began alongside a subdivision of lovely homes on our right.

Wide open spaces (at least for now in this fast growing community)
Montana in the summer
Our first gate onto state lands
Onward to the Triple Tree Path
