    Very cool part of American history. We took the rough road up and at times was not sure we wound make it. Go the 220 route for sure. Everything at the town was locked up for the season so we could only look in windows of the town. It was fascinating though, especially the old hotel.

    Small visitors center showing a watch tower, gear used by smokejumpers & past fires. Guided tour of the smokejumpers depot very informative.

    This trail was great!!! Mostly shaded and by the river. Little places you can wade into the water if you want. My dogs loved it! Weekend is crowded and parking is challenging. Weekday is less crowded. We went a couple of times.

    Small visitor center has a couple of short films and several taxidermy animals to look at. We spent about 25 minutes here looking around. Nice little place to stop for a few minutes if you have extra time.

    The Missoula carousel is small, but employs a collection of beautifully hand carved and painted horses. The workmanship can be enjoyed by parents while kids ride. A Missoula must stop.

    Best farmers market I have been to in a while. All the fruit and vegetables looked good and fresh and the prices were great. We also got sour dough bread from Amy and kettle corn both were very good!

    Lovely campus, hard to find parking but a nice 40 minute walk, including the Oval with grizzly statue to the tower). We did not have time to hike the "M" but it was visible throughout.

    Caras Park is at the center of enjoying a variety of outdoor activities while visiting downtown Missoula, Montana! At the center is a carousel and a large climbing structurefor kids. Take a lovely walk along the Clark's Fork River and watch adventurous people surf or boogie board kayak the river rapids. On Wednesday's in the summer from 11:00-2:00 there are a dozen food trucks to choose lunch from while listening to live musical entertainment!
