A Basic Rest Stop - No Frills
SITREP
This was actually the least interesting of all the rest stops we hit on our I-15 North to I-90 West trek.
THE SETUP
Located in Borax, MT (god, I actually hope no one lives here), this no frills rest stop was just basically a "Sh*t & Go!" A profound diminishment of all the other rest stops we had hit coming north on I-15 through Southern California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah and now Montana.
For example, every rest stop we hit in Utah was amazingly clean, had all sorts of bulletin boards up, exhibits of points-of-interest to go to, lots of pamphlets to take with you, etc. This stop had diddly-squat.
DIMINISHED STANDARDS
It could be, though, that this was just the a changing of the standard since we were now switching over from I-15 North to I-90 West going into the panhandle of Idaho. Perhaps it was a "changing of the guard" and the I-90 maintenance infrastructure is no where near as nice as the I-15 infrastructure. (I just pulled that hypothesis outta my ass, but I'm gonna run with it.) ;)
