Montana

[AaronOnTheRoad]

Okay here in about a week i will be heading to Montana with a road dog. Once we get there i want to hit the west coast cause I've never been. I will be crossing the way to get to my dads house. Should i stop by and get a hoodie and maybe a long sleeve shirt. Im having a feeling that it's going to take a little while to get there and come back. I just wanna know before i pass my dads house. Thanks

When I was up there a few weeks ago it was still getting pretty chilly, and it was snowing in Bozeman. According to google, the temperatures are going to range between 60-80 degrees fahrenheit over the next week. Could be colder at night, though. Couldn't hurt to bring a jacket. You could always drop it off at a thrift store if it proves to be too warm.

Alright cool thanks don't wanna freeze but don't wanna take up room either.

My thoughts too.Bring a jacket even if its a shell.Montana can be nice and warm one min. and cold and miserable the next.If I am up there I always carry a shell jacket in the summer if just for wind protection.

Yeah, the whole region of Montana and Wyoming can be pretty unpredictable. Never underestimate the wind chill factor.

Im so used to east coast weather and not any other weather.

East coast cold is diff. from intermountain west.Its usually a drier cold that cuts to the bone really fast.Plus its almost always windy.
