Out on the northern High Plains, there’s little to divert one’s attention from the “Big Sky” as befitting Montana’s moniker. When big storms course across that big land with big strokes of lightning, they may be noticed by only a few, but those few definitely notice. A stark, palpable sense of isolation and vulnerability pervade this place, compelling respect for that vast sky and its fickle temperament.
