Glacier Country (Montana) - Wink Travel Guide

Northwestern Montana is a mountainous region of Montana in the United States of America, best known for the sprawling Glacier National Park and the cities of Missoula and Kalispell.

It has long relied on its natural resources. Lumber and mining are mainstays of the economy, but those same mountains and forests now draw tourists in great numbers as well. The terrain is some of the most varied in the Mountain West, with the Bitterroot and Continental Divide branches of the Rocky Mountains flanking it on west and east, leaving a mixture of freshwater lakes, prairies, glaciers, rivers, and forests between.

Spring is rainy and unpredictable, but summer and autumn are consistently pleasant with late sunsets.
