With the Gallatin still trying to purge the added creek fed milk water from the recent rains, the upper Madison River is your best bet for a spectacular day of fly fishing. So, what are you waiting for? Get yourself to the upper Maddie. :)
Our summer green color won't be fading anytime soon. A hike along the upper Madison River at Three Dollar Bridge is enough of a reminder of how much snow we had this past winter. The wild flowers are out in force along the rivers of southwest Montana. Get out and enjoy! :)
The beauty of a summer in southwest Montana is that you can pack several outdoors activities into one day. On the sunniest of warm days, you fish the Gallatin, first. Then you scoot down the canyon to one of several hiking opportunities and get your day hike in. If you're expeditious with your time, you may even find yourself back on the river later in the day. Camp, rinse, and repeat...enjoy! :)
Early this summer, everything is coming up green. There are only a few places that are fish-able right now too. Lucky enough, the lower Madison River is only a few minutes away from Bozeman. So, get to it...You should be fishing right now! :)
Unbelievably, there's still some snow visible in Yellowstone National Park. Granted the snows down low probably came from a few days of cold weather this past weekend; but, the snow melt appears to be taking longer this year. Inside the canyon, the Firehole River was still a bit chunky; but, the rest of river looks great. Get out there and fish The Park this week! :)
