T R AV E L E R S E R V I C E Swww.visitmt.com/travelerservices · 800.847.4868You’re ready to come to Montana, but you’re wondering—is there really a train there?Will the national parks be open? Are there buses to the ski hills? Use these TravelerServices to show up prepared, informed and practically passing for a local.GETTING HEREIt’s easiest to explore Montana by car, so if you aren’t already driving here, make plansto rent a vehicle once you arrive. Fly into larger towns or roll in aboard Amtrak’s EmpireBuilder (traversing the northern half of the state), then drive a rental from wherever youland. If you plan on hitting backroads and gravel, or even just iffy weather, upgrade tofour-wheel-drive for more traction. A high-clearance vehicle is necessary only for a fewlimited remote destinations like well-off-the-beaten-path trailheads.You can also tour the state via commercial bus lines, which travel to major cities andsome smaller towns, or join private bus tours.RAIL TRAVEL Amtrak’s Empire Builder runs across northern Montana from Wolf Pointthrough Havre, Glacier National Park and on to Libby. Bonus: there’s a glass-toppedviewing car. www.amtrak.comPASSPORT REQUIREMENT All persons traveling into the U.S. are required to presenta passport or other valid travel document to enter or reenter the country.

MADE IN MONTANAIn Montana we think it is okay to be labelconscious. While indulging in retail therapy,look for Made in Montana logos on productlabels signifying them as authentic local wares.USAAROUND TOWN Most larger towns haveat least basic bus services, and a few taxiand shuttle services are available near themajor airports. For in-town, fair-weathercommuting, consider renting a bike from alocal outdoor store.BUSES AND BUS TOURS If you’drather view the scenery than watch theroad, a variety of private operators offerbus tours, and Greyhound serves majorcities and some small towns. YellowstoneNational Park and Glacier National Parkboth offer bus tours (nps.gov/yell andnps.gov/glac), and Glacier shuttlesvisitors through the park SKI AREA SHUTTLES Airportshuttles whisk you from baggage claim tolocal lodging, and some ski resorts offer adaily shuttle from nearby towns.T RAV E L E R SE RV I C E S Flathead-Glacier Transportation –Flathead/Glacier area406.892.3390www.glaciertransportation.comIf you can’t shop here in person, try the nextbest thing—find Made in Montana goodsonline at MadeInMontanaUSA.com.Learning to snowplow92 VISITMT.COM Karst Stage – Big Sky, WestYellowstone, Chico Hot Springs,Gardiner, Mammoth Hot Springs800.845.2778www.karststage.com Skyline Bus – Big Sky, Bozeman406.995.6287www.skylinebus.com Snow Bus – LOW SAFETY When youencounter a snowplow, know what to do: Plows travel slowly, usually 25 to 30miles per hour, so if you are stuckbehind one, you may be tempted topass. Before you do, keep in mind thatsnowplow drivers may have a difficulttime seeing you, especially if they areclearing the road in front of them. Whichraises another point—would you ratherdrive a freshly plowed road or have tobreak the trail? Never pass a plow on the right. Somesnowplows are equipped with a “wingplow,” an 8-foot extension off the rightside of the truck that can be difficultto see. Plows aren’t just removing snow. Theyalso spread sand or deicer on the road.Leave enough room between the plowand your vehicle to avoid being sprayed.

Cross-country skiers have their pickof over 400 miles (644 km) of designatedski-touring trails, along with thousandsof miles of ungroomed recreationalterritory, while snowmobilers can exploremore than 2,500 miles of designatedtrails and endless backcountry. Whenthe snow melts, the national forests givehikers, bikers, rock climbers, anglers andbackpackers access to a lifetime (or more)worth of adventures.You don’t necessarily need a tent to stayovernight in the national forests; instead,try bunking in one of the Forest Service’srustic cabins or lookouts. Cabins arefurnished with the bare basics (table,chairs, woodstove and bunks), but you’llneed to bring your own bedding.

INSPECTAfter leaving a lake or stream, inspect yourboat, engine, trailer, anchor, waders andother fishing and boating gear for mud,water and vegetation that could carryaquatic invasive species.2. CLEANCompletely remove all mud, water andvegetation you find. Boaters should use apressurized power sprayer, found at most doit-yourself car washes.

The longer you cankeep your boat, trailer, waders, wading bootsand other equipment outside in the hot sunbetween fishing trips, the better.Remember, it is unlawful to move live fish,aquatic invertebrates or plants from one bodyof water to another without authorizationfrom Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks.
