Is This The Scene Of Chris and the Narrator's Brush With Death?

….[The Narrator is deep in thought as he explains the hierarchies of the mechanics mind as he seeks the underlying form. Then suddenly, the horror of a head-on collision! => ]
….".... A car with a trailer coming our way is passing and having trouble getting back into his lane. I flash my headlight to make sure he sees us. He sees us but he can’t get back in. "

US-10, seven miles East of Hysham, MT. Well before Forsyth, I started look road clues that could fit the Narrators description above.
….My task was to find a straight section of road where the Narrator can look ahead to see => ".... A car with a trailer coming our way …. " on a "narrow road" bad drop-off, where he may have been "forced off the pavement" and the subsequent "had the shakes" and fairly soon a "small town " where they "order every kind of snack they’ve got".

…. From Forsyth, MT to Hysham, MT, the 8 mile straight stretch of road running East of Hysham, MT, is one of the few places that US-10 has the above combination of ‘clues”.

….The /\ Above /\ Photo was taken here, because as you can see this location has a safe place to pull of the highway and park. Once stopped at this particular place, I rested and re-viewed again the ZMM passages, so I would not miss any Narrator’s scenery clues, as I was taking photos.
….In the /\ Above /\ Photo (and the next), the lighter green trees, were wonderfully fragrent during my time here!
…. To see 1) A close up of these, wonderfully fragrent, lighter green trees, which as suggested by ZMMQ Editor David Matos are “Probably Russian Olive”. => Right Click And Select “New Tab” => AFTER You Study The Photo That Comes Up, You Can Click On The >> Arrows To View 2) A Very Much Closer, 6 Inch Away, Close Up Photo!
