Visitor Information

Travel Montana, P.O. Box 200533, 301 S. Park St., Helena, MT 59620-0133 (tel. 800/VISIT-MT [800/847-4868] or 406/841-2870; TDD 406/841-2702; www.visitmt.com), provides information about Big Sky country and specific locales in Montana.

It puts out two well-designed editions of the Montana Vacation Guides -- one for summer, one for winter -- plus the Montana Travel Planner, which provides more detailed information, including contacts with agencies that can provide information, travel services such as airlines and rental-car agencies, and listings by town of places to stay and eat, with charts specifying price ranges and such amenities as hot tubs and access for travelers with disabilities. Travel Montana will also send you separate guides to some of Montana's more popular sports: snowmobiling, fishing, and skiing; as well as site-specific guides for each of six travel regions: Glacier Country in the northwest, Gold West Country in the southwest, Russell Country in north-central Montana, Yellowstone Country in south-central Montana, Missouri River Country in the northeast, and Custer Country in the southeast.
