All of the following are in Montana, most are in the Tobacco Root Mountains but also including a trip to Dempsey Creek in the Flint Creek Range and a trip to the East Boulder Plateau in the Beartooth Mountains.
We started the summer a bit late due to the poor health of our senior canine. Leggat Creek in the Tobacco Root Mountains was a day hike. My wife and I hit this area a few years back and we tried again last year but didn't get to the upper bowl due to a party member coming off ACL surgery and deciding to turn back. This trip we spent more time exploring a lot of upper basin prospects.
