Stories and photos about life along the Continental Divide in Montana between the Clark Fork (westslope) and Big Hole (eastslope) Rivers. Fresh back from a Fulbright in South China, I am looking at American culture/nature through new eyes. Backpacking, cross country skiing, fishing, hunting, hiking... this is the story of a 4-season outdoors person.

Skywatch Friday: Storm Across the Valley
As John Denver put it,
"There's a storm across the valley, clouds are rollin' in...:"
And it is beautiful in our little headwater valley of southwest Montana, watching the weather come in from fifty miles away.
What an awesome capture and John Denver's words are perfect as they frequently were! The light is really amazing! Hope you have a great weekend! Thanks as always for stopping by and for your comment! Much appreciated!
Well at least the storms can't sneak up on you. Great shot. On the other hand in some of those narrow valleys flyfishing you might have two minutes warning. I know... Enjoyed the movie reviews. Those Finnlander and their saunas. I know.

ReplyDeleteSo dramatic looking. A really lovely view to be sure!
ReplyDeleteOh, I like this shot! How long did it take for the storm to get to you?
ReplyDeleteBest thing ever to look out and see the great goings on outside. We have always been weather-watchers.
ReplyDeleteGreat panorama of the wonders of the sky.

Beautiful photo! We sometimes see similar things where we live.
ReplyDeleteWe had a storm roll in today. I love hearing the thunder.
ReplyDeleteI love watching storms roll in across mountains or prairies. Great photo. Those dark clouds look like lots of snow is on its way.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous!! I really love the way the clouds and the land are so close to the same colour in that light!
