Lots of people move to Montana to be able to do the outdoors activities that they love. Skiing, hiking, running, fishing, the list goes on and on, and so do the endless miles of trails.

Usually in the summer months, you will see people running all throughout town, the parking lots for the trails are full, and campsites are hard to come buy last minute, unless you have booked it early.
