L & C part 4
« on: July 13, 2012, 05:57:29 pm »
Dear friends,

being on the L & C trail at the moment I sent a few things back home that I didn'nt need any more and  somehow unfortunately and idiotically without thinking also Map # 4 from Dickinson further West. Since I probably won't find the ACA-maps in Dickinson or Medora:

Can somebody please name the towns between Medora ND and Grass Range (I hope that's the right name) MT, where I can find camp-sites/lodging and food-services? The distances I can take from a Montana ordinary road map. 07/14-16  I will stay at the Theodore Roosevelt Park near Medora.

Thank you very much for the help. The precise descriptions in the maps as to services etc were all through Missouri, Iowa and both Dakotas of immeasurable value.

Hi Karl
I'm just finishing the L&c and am at Biggs OR now.
From the top of my head :
Sentinel Butte ND City pavilion camping but trains are there so noisy
Beach ND
Glendive MT Camping at Jaycee Park on the way out of town just over bridge
Lindsy Mt good gas/farm store for water
Circle MT nice bar-stayed with relatives out of town
Jordan Mt City park for camping-showers at pool
Winnett  MT we befriended the bar tender and stayed in an old trailer but there is a city park no showers
Grass range
Lewistown-stayed at motel

Hope this helps- ride safe and drink lots!
David

Dear David,

thanks very much for your informations. They definitely made my mind easier concerning the rest of my tour (from Medora NT to Havre MT). From the Rand McNally Montana-map you just can't figure, what services you can expect in these little places.

I do drink a lot but sometimes I wish that cold beer would a) be available and b) be good for your riding power.

Hope you have a good finish of L&C and thanks again.
