Drove to Thermopolis, Wyo.
from Marmarth, N.D. (410 mi).
went by way of Elkaka, Mont.
and spoke w/ Marshall Lambert
at The Carter Co. Museum. &
Showed us a baby Pachycephalo-
saurus skull he had found
near Elkaka.
Talked of his work with the
museum and how he has had very
little help in keeping it up or
building it. The museum is in a
new location since my visit to
the basement of the high school in
the late 60's. Marshall has added
to an old garage that forms the
nucleus of the museum.
From there we took the gravel
and dirt road to Powellville
across some wide open prairie and
broken, pine-forest rims and buttes.
crossed Beaver Divide & went past
"Claw Butte!"
Last traces of the Eastern
deciduous forest passed shortly
after dropping off the Beaver Flats
rim before the divide between Beaver
creek and the Powder River
Green Ash, American or Red Elm
in gallery x woodlands.
