I hope to visit the Little Big Horn Battlefield and spend some time tramping/driving around the various routes the soldiers and Indians took. As a photographer, I also hope to take lots of snazzy pictures.
But I want to pick and choose the right time of year to make the trip, which rules out summertime since the heat and subsequent sweat would take all the fun out of it.
Fall would be my first choice, perhaps some late September or early October, but I'm wondering what the weather would be like that far north in late April or early May.
Any suggestions on the best time of year to visit Montana?

Greg, you're in high school, correct? What year? And how much attention do today's high school history teachers in New York State get to give to the Alamo and Civil War?
I'm curious because I remember how both those topics were big stuff during my school years in Texas. But I've seen over the past 20-odd years how American History textbooks even in the Texas public schools have been watered down, rewritten and generally PC'd to reflect the points of view of history's have-nots.
All this instead of just sticking to the facts. Here in Texas, we had Texas history in both fourth and seventh grade, and they still do that (at least here in El Paso), but it's such a PC version that it makes me cringe.
Just wondering how they do it on your turf . . . . .
