Butte Mt

This city is a very busy place! We had a campsite about 5 miles out of town, staying 2 days. Part of the city was closed off due to Evel Knievel Days for the weekend we were there. (The tall bldg in the background is where the stunt man jumped from the roof.) Yes...we were part of the crowd. The wealth of Butte is due to copper mining. Berkley Pit was abandoned by ARCO in 1994, now filling with acidic water. There's quite a history to this and very interesting!!
