A Road Trip Adventure in Montana

511eNews — Fri, 06 Apr 2018 15:30:25 +0000

In Weekend Road Trip, the Ligares get behind the wheel to explore the beauty of Southwest Montana as they take advantage of every stop and detour along the way.

Weekend Road Trip is episode 25 in the Discover Your #MontanaMoment video series and can be viewed on VISITMT.COM.

The couple’s journey begins in the historic mining town of Butte, where they enjoy a sunny walk through Uptown, a Victorian-era neighborhood, and visit local businesses like Headframe Spirits, a craft distillery. After their time in Butte, the road takes them south with stops at Big Hole National Battlefield and the ghost town of Bannack State Park. As their weekend road trip continues, the mountain peaks in the distance draw closer and the lush Big Hole Valley beckons. Here the couple stops to try something new, an afternoon fly fishing the Big Hole River.

“Driving down the open road, going slow and stopping at places that we see that look intriguing. That’s just about as good as a road trip can get,” says Scott.

Scott and Miho remember their hearty camp-style steak dinner at the Big Hole Lodge fondly. The friendly atmosphere in the riverside clearing perfectly embodied the spirit of their road trip adventure.

“It’s been an escape of a trip,” says Scott. “Being able to just leave work and everything behind…it’s pretty ideal.”

A road trip is the perfect way to explore Montana. Whether you have just a weekend like Scott and Miho, or are looking for a longer adventure, you’ll create memories during your journey with the road as your guide. Visiting Montana’s charming small towns along the way allows you to feel the sense of community and heritage through local dining, beverages, shopping and accommodations. Outdoor recreation can be found at every turn, with opportunities to experience unspoiled places across the state you won’t find anywhere else.

Scott and Miho’s weekend road trip highlights just a few of the ways you can discover your #MontanaMoment during a road trip in Montana. To start planning your summer road trip, find more trip ideas and things to do along the way.

Montana Has The Powder!

511eNews — Sat, 27 Jan 2018 14:34:40 +0000

Looking for the ultimate ski destination with plenty of powder? Planned a ski trip but can’t find the white stuff? Enjoy tons of snow without tons of people in Big Sky Country. With many states reporting record low snow, Montana has seen the most consistent snowfall across the western U.S. and snowpack is being reported at record highs around the state.

Five Montana ski destinations are reporting base depths of at least 40 inches on Montana’s Snow Report (http://www.visitmt.com/places-to-go/ski-areas-and-resorts.html) four of which are showing summit depths of at least five feet.

This makes Montana’s overall snowpack the deepest in the rocky mountain region. Snow conditions are great and the temperatures are ideal for outdoor recreation.

To help skiers chase the snow and catch the next flight to Montana, the Ultimate Ski Trips section of the www.VisitMT.com site offers ski trip ideas and itineraries for four areas of the state as well information about 16 of the state’s ski areas and resorts. The site also provides visitors with plane, train, automobile and bus travel information with booking a trip to Montana just a click away.

Skiers looking for the best powder and views in the west without the crowds should head to Montana and check the Montana Snow Report for current conditions at http://www.visitmt.com/places-to-go/ski-areas-and-resorts/extended-snow-report.html.
