46 out of Montana’s 56 counties are considered “frontier counties” with an average population of six or fewer people per square mile. There is also a rich sporting history in the state, as the first loge run in North America was built at Lolo Hot Springs on Lolo Pass in 1965. In Montana, you will find diverse wild life, as no other state has as many different species of mammals as Montana, which on average contains 1.4 elk, 1.4 pronghorn antelope, and 3.3 deer per square mile. Many of these animals can be found in Yellowstone National Park, in southern Montana and northern Wyoming, and was the first national park in the nation. Every spring, nearly 10,000 white pelicans, with a wingspan of nine feet, migrate from the Gulf of Mexico to Medicine Lake in the north east part of the state. Natural beauty can also be found along the Going to the Sun Road, located in Glacier Park. It is considered one of the most beautiful scenic drives in all of America. Book a bed and breakfast in Montana near hiking or a great horseback riding trail.
