After Glacier NP and saying good by to our good friends for a while, we came here to Downstream COE Park. 
It is beautiful with shade trees, and is next to a huge lake, dammed by the COE in the 1930’s. It was used for flood control then, but now it produces a huge amount of electricity for the area, and makes it a great recreational spot for anyone to come camp.

The power plant is about a mile from here, as well the Fort Peck Interpretive center with replica of animals in the area, and some specimens of dinosaurs found in the area. Not too far away there is also a fish hatchery which is used to stock the fish streams with walleyes.
We are going to chill out here for a few days before we head to Theodore Roosevelt NP.
The weather is cool in the evenings, a little warmer in the afternoon, a nice place to hide out….even a little geocaching.
