The other day, I was wanting to fly the DJI Phantom 4 drone at a new location, so decided on driving 14 miles up Rock Creek (east of Missoula, Montana) to video the Welcome Creek Suspension Bridge. The bridge crosses Rock Creek as a major access to the tiny Welcome Creek Wilderness Area. In fact, the wilderness boundary is just across the span. The 28,000-acre wilderness is in the Lolo National Forest where it sits on the abuts the Sapphire Mountains. The 7,737-foot Cleveland Mountain is the highest and most dominant peak in the area.
