Day 4, cont'd: Got away early and made good time, until we fueled up in Whitehall. There was a big rig unloading at the station and blocked our exit. We decided after waiting about 15 mins that we'd get the good ol' two way radios out and back the moho and trailer up so we could take the other exit out. We are getting pretty good at this. :)
Oh the never ending sameness of eternal ranchlands. Actually, it's quite pretty.

| The Hi-way from Butte to Livingston |
Had a big climb out of Boseman and what goes up must come down! Reached the KOA campsite near Livingston in good time. So very lovely and quiet. Well off the hiway. Right beside the Yellowstone River. There were some Sandhill Cranes resting by the river when we arrived. We are pretty much the only campers here and the owners are on winter hours so are gone much of the day.

After we set up our camp, unloaded the car we headed back into Livingston to pick up a few groceries and fuel up the car for the trip to Yellowstone in the morning.
