April 28, 2012 - Miles City, MT

To start off with, let me note that it was 37 degrees and raining when we started our walk this morning.  And, of course, windy.

Lobby of the Olive Hotel

The directions for the "Frontier Town" walk  are contained in a beautiful 18-page pamphlet with lots of color photos and historical facts!  We started at the charming Olive Hotel.  Do go inside and take a look around if you visit Miles City.



 

We continued through the town past some historic commercial buildings, the bank built in 1900, an old log cabin, a small brick barn, and the wool warehouse. Then we headed out toward the Yellowstone River. After strolling along the river for a while, the walk turns back toward town where you can see "parlor houses" and then the route heads out to the Range Riders Museum and the Custer County Art & Heritage Center.

Miles City really has the look and feel of the "Wild West."
