Elkhorn, Montana was once home to 2,500 inhabitants, as this silver mining community boomed during the late 1800's. As of 2020, the census recorded a population of 12 people, most having refurbished the old homes that adorned the streets of this once vibrant western community. A four AM wakeup call awaited me, as the two hour drive northwest would lead me to some pretty spectacular captures. 

So much can change in just 52 weeks!

Here you have a photograph that sums up my very long drive through the Peace Garden State of North Dakota. Oh yeah, that doing uncomfortable things, turns out it’s true after-all.
