The other evening, one of the couples at the campground we're at asked if we had driven up to the overlook in town. They described some fantastic views from a butte right in the town that made all the buildings down below look like matchbox sized objects. We hadn't gone, so needless to say we went the next day.
The butte's elevation was only 7527' per a US Geologic Bench Mark, but that was 500' above town so it gave a great view to the Painted Hills and Absaroka Mountains. While the temperature was in the high 80's, it felt much cooler as a Chinook Wind was blowing across the top - we had to use both straps on our hats to keep them from blowing off.
