Montana Information & Travel

Montana is a heavily visited state by tourists. While I don’t possess exact figures, anyone who lives here can vouch for the fact that during the summer Montana becomes a very popular place. But, as soon as the weather turns colder, most people from out-state virtually disappear - giving the place back to us locals.

Why I Created This Montana Travel Guide

There are plenty of places on the Internet where you can get information about travel in Montana. Unfortunately, most of the sites say the same old thing, with information just copied from one site to another. At least to me, most Montana travel sites, especially those that deal with individual cities in the state, just aren't really helpful.

So I created this section of Big Sky Fishing, to give visitors an idea of what the primary "cities" and other areas in Montana are really like. This travel guide section is really less a true "travel guide" than my own personal opinions and experiences about each city and loction, with helpful information thrown in about what people new to these cities and places should expect to see and encounter.

Additionally, all the photos of each city, town and region have been taken by myself, and are not the generic, overused travel photos commonly seen on other travel web pages (before you think about swiping photos for your own use, read the Photo Use Guidelines policy!).
