Lately we have been watching Mysteries of the Abandoned on the Science Channel and it is giving us many travel ideas. Many of the places are located outside of our six hour radius from Denver. On one episode the camera panned back from and old building in a mountainous landscape and I thought to myself, that is definitely in the US and probably not too far from Colorado. Well, I was right it was a ghost town in Montana. I love ghost towns and love shooting them too. There is that feeling of mystery you get when visiting the abandon as you wander around and try to imagine why things become abandon in the first place. On our photo trips we tend to seek out and shoot a lot of urban decay, ghost towns and cemeteries and the more dilapidated the better.

We decided we needed at least four days on this trip. Naturall...
