A few more reasons why you've gotta go…
- The geologic diversity: the river-carved canyons of the Gallatin, Yellowstone's volcanic caldera and the glacier carved Paradise Valley are a sight to be seen.
- The cowboy songs and stories: they just sound better while you're sitting tall in the saddle on a ride up Dome Mountain.
- The 308-foot Lower Falls of the Yellowstone: stumbling upon the Falls at the end of a backcountry hike is one heckuva pleasant surprise.
- Chico Hot Springs Resort: our final resting place, the Chico Resort boasts the best gourmet dining (by far!) in all of Montana.
