The best shop in Big Fork has closed it's doors ! Seeley Lake has Deer Country Quilts. great inspirations. Glacier Quilts & Quilt Gallery in Kalispell. best in Missoula is Vicky's Down Under Quilts (corner of South & Reserve by Rosauers food)
right as you are going through town to hit I90. easy on/off.
Sorry, you will not see many bears unless you are out in some of the wilderness areas or in the Park, some campgrounds near the Park. Be smart about food if you are camping--don't leave it accessible. Going to the Sun
road is a special treat from the Red Cars. west to east is the edge of the road is you a little challenged by driving
on the road that drops off very close to you and your car tires.
check to see if the snow is even plowed on the road to the top !
you are certainly invited to the Missoula Quilt Guild show. we have over 400 articles to display (and some very
talented quilters). two featured quilters with great quilts. silent auction, boutique'. June 22 & 23. check our website.
Missoulaquiltersguild.com or org. Big Sky High is easy to find. there's is a Fort Missoula museum very near & walking
track.
go to the Montana website for all kinds of info. And enjoy your stay in Big Sky Country, home of friendly people!
