This is interesting – the previous sign here was an ITD-erected sign but it looks like it was replaced with an MDT sign. It’s not totally clear what state maintains this part right here, though we’re technically a few feet into Montana. Follow 43 east to Wisdom, MT and 93 to Hamilton, MT and Missoula, MT

Turn right for Montana 43, which actually dips into Idaho for a half mile or so though it’s hard to tell exactly where the lines are. Stay straight for US 93 as we head into Montana.
