We left Polson, MT the morning of the 22nd headed for Turah RV Park. Turah isn’t even on the map but it is a small community about 7 miles East of Missoula on I-90. The campground is only about 1/4 mile South of the Interstate but you have to exit a couple of miles away. We have mountains on both the North and South since I-90 runs East and West . We have pull through’s that are about 100 feet long but not very wide.
We drove down to Phillipsburg, MT yesterday. Phillipsburg was a mining town back in the 1800’s. It officially became a town in 1867. The mining changed over the years. It was silver, sapphires, and in WWI Manganese which just dumped in the waste dump when they were mining the silver. The town has re-painted the old buildings and they are quite impressive. It is nice to see the old buildings being restored instead of just torn down.
There was a Viper Car Club in town. Some really nice cars.
The Jail is really old too but it doesn’t look it.
If you look really close you can see a hanging noose in the top window of the tower.
We came upon a waterfall that just came out of the rock or so we thought. It turned out it came from a lake on the other side of the rocks and the stream went through a hole in the rock.
