One of our favorite places to go in Montana is the Kootenai Falls area located between Libby and Troy Montana on US Hwy 2. This is the setting for the film "River Wild" and has some amazing rapids when the river is running high and boasts one of the largest free flowing falls in the northwest.

There are plenty of trails along the south side to explore and take in the views, but one of the most exciting and best views is from the swinging bridge just west of the main trail. While the bridge is not for everyone (we saw a lot of people decide not to cross after stepping foot on it) it provides access to several more trails on the north side of the river as well as a spectacular view from the middle of the bridge.

There is so much to see and do in Montana. We've been to Montana several times and always enjoy going back. For those who love the outdoors Montana is a real jewel.
