orion,
another trip you should take if you have the time is up the north fork of the flathead river all the way to the town of polebridge. it follows the western boundry of glacier np and back in the 1900's was some prime elk wintering. if polebridge is still the same it's like stepping into the 30's. once again, enjoy the trip!

Yeah, blow the horn at Moose's...everyone gets free beer if you make a note!!  (Also, they used to have great pizza...and free peanuts)

Had one of my very few face to face griz encounters up the north fork....OK it was more like 60 or 70 yards, but I was in high school and only holding a bow....was pretty intense for me.

If you head up the North Fork, just take one of the side roads up by Polebridge (Whale Creek, Moose Creek, Red Meadow Creek, Teepee Lake) and almost all of it is public land.  Watch for grizzlies.  That is where they dump the "bad" bears.  West of Kalispell on Hwy 2 is safer as far as griz go.

Jerry, A trip to Polebridge is well worth the effort. FYI, go there hungry. The Polebridge Mercantile has an awesome bakery, and the sandwiches are great. A friend of mine runs a B&B just outside of Columbia Falls about 2 miles from Dave Windauer's. Check out badrock.com. Very nice place to stay and the owners are so friendly. Mark just might want to go to Polebridge with you. He tells all of his guests if they go there they have to bring something back for him. He also has a McKenzie deer target out back. There is a carbon arrow behind it worth a beer of your choice. Have a great trip.

And drink lots of huckleberry shakes.  Might be even better than Moose Drool.   Notice I said "might..."  You ought to have several of each to make up your own mind.

Ahhhh take your snowshoes and plan on parking on the main road. you may not need the snowshoes if you walk on the snowmobile trails but as soon as you step off a packed trail you will be digging out until MMMM Late may early june lots of snow this year.

There are a couple of shooting lanes there, my sister-in-law shoots target recurve.

Was down visiting, she and my brother took me to a couple of places that were into some traditional stuff.

Just have to finish off the longbow for my brother (Dryad glass bow) and get him started down the path to righteousness!   :thumbsup:
