Devil's Tower in Wyoming.
Impressive remnants of a long dead volcano. |

In Montana the
weather-luck left me. I was driving towards a
pitch black wall of clouds, and the closer I
came the stronger the wind blew. I was still
lucky, because in summer this would have been
tornado weather, so it was only strong wind
and lots of rain. |

The rain in Montana changed to
snow on Lolo-Pass in Idaho. A cop
stopped me to give me the latest weather report
for the top of the pass. He said, he couldn't
recommend driving further up, but the
alternative routs wouldn't be better either. I
drove in first gear with my feet an the ground,
and that worked fine. |

Further I drove through Washington
in partly sonny, but windy weather.
At sunset I was back in Oregon.
But it were still 4 hours of driving until
home.

The roads were really nice
in some parts, e.g. in Utah, Colorado and the
Lolo Pass (left) in Idaho.
Other roads were quite
boring, e.g. in Nebraska (right), parts
of South Dakota and Wyoming.
