Doris Ashley left Iowa and came to Montana as the frontier era came to a close and the hard transition to the modern West began.
Together, they shared many adventures over the next sixty yea.
Doris soon met the love of her life, native son Dan Huffine, another Park worker with an abiding love for the region.
In 1925, already a widow at the age of twenty-four, she took a job as "cheap help" in Glacier National Park and thus began a lifelong affair with Montana\'s landscape, wildlife, and people.
