Stadsadvies

Cultuur en gebruiken

Montanans are friendly

It’s not unusual for locals to start up a conversation with you in public, as if you’re an old friend. Waving to other drivers you pass on dirt roads is customary. Montana folk are kind and helpful, so don’t be afraid to smile and say hello!
Wat je mee moet nemen

Dress for the weather

If you don’t like the weather in Montana, wait 5 minutes. Always be prepared for changes in weather, especially if you’re enjoying outdoor activities.
Wat je mee moet nemen

This is grizzly country

Don’t forget to carry bear spray when you’re heading out to the woods! 🐻
