Whether it’s winter, summer, spring, or fall, there’s plenty to do in the picturesque mountain town of Missoula.
Food: The butter flight at 1889 Steakhouse is a must-try, in my opinion. You also won’t want to sleep on The Camino, a Mexican style restaurant that’s known for their goat and lamb dishes.
Outdoors: For a view, take a 1.2 mile trek up Mount Sentinel to the ‘M’ or follow the Blodgett Canyon Overlook Trail to a roaring waterfall.
