White Sulphur Springs,
MT : Overview.gif)
White
Sulphur Springs, Montana, is a town that has seen a growth
spurt recently. As most people know, Montana has seen a
flood of out-state money pouring into the state - leading
to countless real estate developments. White Sulphur Springs,
due to its location, has benefited somewhat from this phenemanon
- unlike many of its neighbor towns to the east (such as
Martinsdale and Harlowtown).
I suspect
the reason White Sulphur Springs has attracted all this
building activity is due to its splendid location in the
Smith River Valley. The town is surrounded by mountains.
The Castle Mountains rise
to the east of town. The Big Belt Mountains are found to
the west, while the Little Belt Mountains are to the north
of town. Additionally, Helena is
also located relatively close - being about a 1.5 hour
drive
away.
Indeed,
White Sulphur Springs is located perfectly for people who
enjoy outdoor activities. All the nearby mountains provide
excellent hunting for elk and deer. Showdown
Ski Area is
just a half hour away and provides decent downhill skiing.
The area also has excellent snowmobile trails and cross-country
ski trails. And, for the angler, the legendary Smith
River begins just down the road, providing for some superb trout
fishing.
