Scenic Areas

Glacier National Park - 2 ˝ hours from campground. A good day tour. 

www.nps.gov/glac 

Enter Glacier National Park and you are stepping into one of the most pristine natural settings left in North America--perhaps in the world. Protected for most of this century, the park still looks much as it has looked since the glaciers began receding thousands of years ago. Like an enchanted highway in a fairy tale, the world-famous Going-to-the-Sun Road winds its way up and up, past forests and lakes, until you are driving among the peaks themselves. An extraordinary feat of engineering listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the highway offers to everyone what was once available only to the hardiest of hikers. From Lake McDonald on the west to St. Mary on the east, visitors travel a route that leaves no one unmoved by its majesty and beauty.

St. Mary Lake Beautiful




St. Mary Lake in all its splendor!

This sparkling jewel in Glacier's Crown is perfect for taking an early morning or sunset cruise. Tours depart from the Rising Sun boat dock. The photo opportunities are endless as they are on all of the many other lakes and vistas in Glacier National Park.

 

 

National Bison Range

Take a drive northwest of Missoula and take in the sights of the majestic Mission Mountains. You can visit the National Bison Range which protects a herd of 300-500 buffalo on approximately 19,000 acres of grassland and forest. You might see whitetail and mule deer, pronghorns, elk, bighorn sheep, and if you’re lucky, you might catch a glimpse of a Rocky Mountain goat. Keep an eye out for other wildlife such as beaver, mink, weasel, muskrat, bobcats, coyotes and black bears. If you’re a bird-watcher, bring your binoculars and view some ring-necked pheasants, gray partridges and grouse.
