Missoula, Montana

Founded in 1860 as a trading market, Missoula is situated in the mouth of five valleys and at the confluence of three rivers. Missoula or “rivers of awe” is known as the cultural hub of the Northern Rockies. The area is rich in history of the Wild West with the 32 acre Fort Missoula and Garnet Ghost Town. For the adventurous, bicycle the historic Lewis and Clark Trail between Great Falls and Missoula.

Although it is not a large town, cultural events abound in Missoula. The Missoula Symphony Association brings many of the world's finest performers to town. Missoula hosts a wide array of festivals including the Wildlife Film Festival, The Missoula Arts and Crafts Festival, International Choir Festival and Native American Powwow.

At any time of year, you can find adventure within a short drive of Missoula. You can canoe the Clark Ford River, rock climb at Lolo Pass, or ski at Marshall Mountain. There’s also snowshoeing in the Mission Range, kayaking on the Flathead River or white-water rafting on Idaho’s Lochsa and Selway Rivers. If you just want to see wildlife at its best, then a trip to Glacier or Yellowstone National Parks for hiking may yield glimpses of grizzly bears, wolves, mountain lions and mountain goats.
