Great video once again. I love to visit Giant Springs and Roe River in Great Falls. Big, cold spring and very, very short river 😉

[@wncjan]

I will actually visit Montana the coming July if only for two nights. One in Billings and one in Cooke City. Just planned that yesterday.

[@WereintheRockies]

@@wncjan Somehow I missed this, but I love that you mentioned Roe River!! The shortest river in the world or something like that. Hahaha.

[@BeautyOnEarth]

To everyone who is reading this, you’re beautiful and an amazing person. Please exercise frequently and eat more fruits/veggies. I wish you all good health, great success, and everlasting happiness!!!!!!!

[@trudytrowbridge8268]

I live in Montana I have moved a few times n Montana just keeps calling me home back to her. There r so many things to see n do here. Montana is so open n wide as u can drive for 100s of miles in between towns n never see many towns in between. Montana is GODS COUNTRY

[@WereintheRockies]

Yes, it is a very beautiful state.

[@alvaroe2704]

Hello from Spain. Ive only been to NY in the USA, but that country really amazes me. Can't wait to go back again

[@jamesfountain6183]

Sorry you went to New York. You should go to Yellowstone & Glacier National Parks

[@tonyschillinger2204]

We grew up in Eastern Montana, so to add to this wonderful video are more touristy spots. Fort Peck Dam is the largest hydraulically filled Earthen Dam in the World. Rodeos are a must see throughout the State. Big Sky ski resorts, down hill and cross country skiing are both very popular. There are 56 counties in Montana and 55 State Parks to adventure. Montana has the most Registered Angus cattle with ranches all over the state and some you can experience a Cattle Drive on. It is the Treasure State with an abundance of gemstones for jewelry and trinkets. Fly fishing as they did from the movie "A River Runs Through It". There are Seven Native American Reservations in Montana and watching a Pow Wow is inspiring. Just a few of more to see in Montana.

[@WereintheRockies]

Thanks for all the info!

[@LLOriginal]

Another excellent presentation! From Montana and love Montana! All of this stuff is awesome to do!!

[@WereintheRockies]

Thank you, we're glad you agree.

[@VOsTravelwithKIDS]

What a beautiful place Montana is!

[@WereintheRockies]

Gorgeous!

[@kethsharakhlok1976]

Excellent info., thank you. 🙏 Being a foreigner, I just completed reading a Juvenile Literature book on Montana and I loved every page of it. I only passed through northern route of MT by Amtrak in July of 1993. Above all, I was interested in MT after seeing the movie "Legends of the Fall" that continues to stay in my memory even though it was not filmed in MT.

[@WereintheRockies]

Thanks for sharing!

[@scottphillipy9831]

Montana is a beautiful state. Didn't get to see much cause I was not able to stay. It on my list to return. Thanks for sharing this with us, as always a great bit of information.

[@NoOverhead]

This was great! I can't wait to be back this spring, and you've added a few new adventures for me. Thank you for sharing!

[@WereintheRockies]

Glad we could help! Thanks for watching.

[@ceciliaolsson7987]

I have relatives in Montana so I am Lucky to have been there. It is a beautiful state!🇸🇪🙋‍♀️

[@WereintheRockies]

It really is!

[@rachaelgarland9505]

Great video and wonderful information! I'm using so much of what you talked about for my itinerary framework. Thank you!

[@WereintheRockies]

You’re welcome!

[@greggchilds9654]

Another terrific video and presentation from We’re In The Rockies, which we consider the Best KZbin video on camping and traveling in great America’s West. Your videography is great, and we love your information you present. It’s obvious that you have done a lot of subject research and that you know your subject. I especially enjoyed the video of Gates of the Mountains and the historical perspective of the Lewis and Clark expedition that you present. Same with the Great Falls area. That certainly is beautiful country, as is the rest of the state that you show. Montana is definitely The Big Sky state! Happy Trails!

[@WereintheRockies]

Wow! Thank you for the kind words. We are so glad you enjoy our videos.

[@alfredbisson9997]

my son lives in stevensvile and i visit every year for 4 months at a time , Also have mu on vehicle there so I get to see a lot of the sites.

[@huha47]

Sorry to hear you missed out on Bozeman, where I grew up. It was much smaller than today, and the last time I was there, I felt like a foreigner. The church in Helena was modelled after the Votiv Church in Vienna, Austria, according to a cousin of mine. Bozeman was named after John Bozeman a friend of Jim Bridger, thus the Bridger Mountain in the background along with Sacajawea.

[@WereintheRockies]

Thanks for sharing.

[@jdh6046]

Miles city is great

[@billjanke8690]

If you look up loose horse haying , on youtube you will see the draft horse club putting on a demonstration of haying with horses the way it used to be done in Montana, the contraption you were talking about is called a beverslide, the hay is already dry when we put it in the haystack, I'm on the front cover of the DVD with my percherons, I am the teamster running the Beaver slide, the documentary explains everything,

[@WereintheRockies]

Thanks Bill!! I’m looking it up now

[@WereintheRockies]

Bill, I watched the video and it was awesome! Loved seeing the old process. The never slide was super cool

[@stevenjames4659]

Love this very informative video although you lost me when you said they’re introducing bear, letting them roam free, and if you want you can stay in a teepee. Not likely!

[@WereintheRockies]

Ya, I don't love the idea of staying in a teepee with bears on the loose- Cheryl

[@JustinHorinek]

Red lodge, Billings should be added

[@WereintheRockies]

Thanks for sharing.

[@aloeasmr5634]

Does anyone recommend going in February (my birth month) never been there and really wanting to go

[@WereintheRockies]

It depends on what you want to do. It will still be very cold in February and will probably still have snow.

[@JoeNegan]

No, February, IMHO, has the most -30 temps, wind that blows sideways, and snow drifts 10 feet high. Travel is very risky. The best time to visit is June thru September.

[@ronhardy3815]

Paddleheads!!! A moose

[@erics.786]

Do they still have the permit requirement to drive GTTSR? That was the reason we did not go during our Yellowstone trip last summer...

[@WereintheRockies]

Yes, they are continuing the reservation system this year

[@hamiltonharper]

It's the Missoula Paddleheads.

[@WereintheRockies]

Yes! I realized that after the video. Lol

[@LLOriginal]

But... Montana is too crowded...

[@montanadecker]

Man people never mention Red Lodge

[@sethjackson1143]

What is red lodge!?

[@gazof-the-north5708]

Montana is larger than Germany!

[@markroberson7497]

Lmao I know you don’t know anything when you say Bozeman is a town 💀💀💀 it is a city

[@iowa_lot_to_travel9471]

It is a big town. It has nowhere near the culture of a city

[@user-wo3yj6lx6q]

Sakakawea ,............not sacajawea,........ no "J" sound at all. thanks for pronouncing her name properly!

[@scottphillipy9831]

Montana is a beautiful state. Didn't get to see much cause I was not able to stay. It on my list to return. Thanks for sharing this with us, as always a great bit of information.

[@WereintheRockies]

Thank you. Good luck staying longer on your next trip.
