Rt 200 through the Helena National Forest - By Big_Mike

Actually started this ride in Sandpoint, Idaho taking Idaho State Route 200 around the north end of Lake Pend Orille down into Montana, through Thompson Fall and to Missoula. Stayed on MT 200 all the way to Great Falls as described here. Once you get away from Missoula headed east it's an excellent ride with little traffic and great scenery. You cross the Continental Divide on Rogers Pass elevation 5600+, west of Great Falls about 70 miles.
