July 11-14 2011 Deer Lodge

While we were staying in Anaconda we drove to Deer Lodge to see the Territorial prison museum and the car museum.

the Anaconda stack. There used to be a copper smelter there and they tore down the building and left only the stack. The rest are the prison museum. Me and my new friend

John locked up. The side of the prison. Prisons are really depressing places. The inmates did a lot of the construction, including the rockwork in the wall and tower.

Long cell block. The car museum. It was one of the biggest and best I have ever been to.

We stopped at a rest stop and the parking for RV’s was really close together

We drove to Missoula the next day.  We stopped at the Jump base for the smoke jumpers and toured it.  A Sherpa airplane, one of the ones  used by the smoke jumpers.
