SUMMER IS IN FULL SWING!

Posted by russ  /   August 10, 2010

I LOVE Big Sky this time of year!!!  The weather has been fabulous (even with late afternoon thunder boomers which makes for great afternoon naps!!!) – temperature in the mid 70-80’s, a few refreshing afternoon rain showers and the big blue Montana sky is a stage for billions of sparkling stars at night.

There is so much activity for both locals and visitors to enjoy.  The hiking is marvelous, as this is a banner year for colorful wildflowers.  Mountain biking and horseback trails are everywhere, and the fishing is most excellent in the rivers and mountain lakes.
