Montana
"Big Sky Country," where Glacier National Park, the northern gateways to Yellowstone and blue-ribbon trout rivers draw outdoor lovers.
Montana lies in the northwestern United States, bordering Canada, with the Rocky Mountains in the west and vast plains in the east. Glacier National Park is known for Going-to-the-Sun Road, glacial lakes and alpine trails; Bozeman in the southwest is a college town and the gateway to Yellowstone National Park's north and west entrances, with the Museum of the Rockies and ski areas nearby. The state's rivers are great for fly fishing. Summer is the best time to visit Glacier National Park, and winter is good for skiing. The main gateways are the airports in Bozeman, Kalispell and other towns.
