Title
Land of the Shining Mountains Near Red Lodge, Montana
Description
"Approaching the land of the shining mountains taken 27 miles from Red Lodge on Highway 12.

On the plateau in early spring, just after the Beartooth Hi-Way has been opened for travel. Many of these snow fields remain throughout the summer and it is a common sight to see tourists snowballing in July and August. Some of the local ski fans also do a little summer skiing 'On Top' in the merry month of June."
"Dear Jacky,

Love, K & A"
