Extends 89 miles/143 kmS of Missoula to the Idaho border. Although in part a
bedroom community for Missoula, the Bitterroot valley has became a second
home and retirement paradise for folks who have fallen in love with the
Missoula area mountains, but not with the Missoula area Traffic. Though not
as well known as other areas of the state, the fly-fishing in the Bitterroot
River is excellent making it a preferred destination for anglers in the
know. The Britterrroot has the reputation as Montana's banana bell, because
the microclimate in the valley offers a long growing season. A lot of
Missoula-area golf fanatics head to Hamilton in February because the golf
course there greens up for play much earlier than the ones even a few miles
farther north. |
