I never thought I would, but I did. Now let me tell you all about it:
Montana is a big state with lots of countryside. I would venture to say there are more deer, cows, and horses than people. There are vast farmland and wheat fields that gave the entire state a distinct golden hue ✨
There are also quaint country towns and small cities scattered across the map. Here’s my expert travel report with each of them 🕵🏻♂️
Bozeman is a small college town with Midwestern country vibe. Good coffee shops and a historic main street with a handful divey bars. Cool dinosaur museum. Charming city park. Impossible to get food after ten 😑
Missoula is a super hippy college town with a lot of flavor, culture, and late night bar scene. I really gelled with the vibe here, but the coffee shop wifi was so bad I had to get out 😅
Whitefish is a charming resort town where I learned how to throw axes and worked out of a cabin in the woods. You will have a better chance of passing deer, horses, and cows in your neighborhood than you will finding a place that serves breakfast after 11am 🤷🏻♂️
Glacier National Park has an amazing scenic drive, beautiful landscapes, and houses a hidden bakery in Polebridge tucked thirty miles down a dirt road in the middle of nowhere. Lots of bears. No accessible glaciers 😤
Big Sky is a beautiful resort area known for the biggest skiing in America. Beautiful views. Cool waterfall hike. Expensive beers 🍻
Billings is an industrial town with casinos that offer karaoke on random Tuesday nights. The locals will applaud your performance of Walking in Memphis if you bring the energy 🎤
Helen and Butte are signs on the highway that may have a town associated with it but I cannot tell you for sure. The signs are nice 💁🏻♂️
So yea, that’s Montana. Overall, I met some amazing people, made lasting memories, and enjoyed a month in the crown of the continent. But enough about me, I want to hear about your experience in the Treasure State👇
Would you spend a month in Montana? 🤔
