Review & FAQ:

If nature is something that appeals to your family, then look no further than Bitterroot National Forest. This massive natural wonderland has 1.6 million acres of trees, glacier-carved rock, rivers, and other beautiful features. Families can enjoy activities such as hiking in the forest or among deep, dramatic canyons, fishing on one of the bodies of water in the forest, camping under the stars, hunting for game, or enjoying a ride on a motorized sport vehicle. In the winter, the forest becomes a different kind of wonderland, and it is great for skiing, snowshoeing, and a good old family snowball fight.
