8. I spent the summer of 03 digging dinosaurs in Rudyard
Very cool town, but so close to the brink, it wasn't even funny. Two bars, one restaurant, one convenience store, and (strangely) one full sized branch of Wells Fargo Bank. The one restaurant, the Eagle's Nest Cafe, hadn't paid the rent in several months, but was still operating because just the idea of losing the town's only restaurant was too much.

Chester was depressing, and Havre wasn't much better. At least Havre has some nice grocery stores, but the mall was only at about 40% occupancy. It was like an absolute ghost town.
