Artist’s Note: It seems that almost every time I travel outside of Montana, I head south on I-15, and so consequently, I also return that way. After many miles of sagebrush and old lava flows, one winds up through the mountains to Monida Pass. Dropping down in to Montana, one of the first sights is these Lima Peaks. From there on, the landscape is all Montana, so different than points south! I’m always filled with gratitude that I get to live in such a beautiful place. Lima Peaks always says “welcome home” to me.
