I've made albums of the two cities. They're down the side. You may wonder why I take more photos of ghost towns, products and interiors than I do of views. It's because I just can't do justice to the views. You have to be there to see the clouds moving, the water changing colour, the snow glistening, the trees swaying and the light changing. Having said that, here's a Montana view. Two people per square mile, remember? Click on it if you want to see it bigger, but it won't be nothin' like the real thing.

Ghost towns
We visited two: Nevada City and Virginia City. Nevada City is more of an open-air museum, Virginia City more restored and active - resident population of 150. Fortunately, Steve has been reading a trilogy of books by A B Guthrie, set in the pioneering days and all around here, so he was full of random information and was able to answer my questions about basic functions etc.
