I posted over in the HTF but think I'll get more response from GD...
Work is going to take me to Helena and I'll have an entire day off and have a rental car lined up. I'm a Utah resident and have flown into all of the major cities in the state, but never really been anywhere but the hotels near the airports.
I'm thinking a 300 mile or so road trip might allow me to see some of the state. If you were in Helena which way would you go?
UPDATE: Wound up driving from Helena up to Seeley Lake which is about 80-100 miles to the northwest, back down towards Missoula, than back to the southeast to Butte, then back to Helena. 330 miles or so in all.
Some pics of a little lake to the north of Seeley Lake.,
