Missoula, Montana Included in 8 Great College Towns Honor Roll

The University of Montana is home of the Grizzlies for good reasons, as wilderness surrounds 100,000 (yes, the population’s doubled in a decade) residents, who tend to fish, bike, ski or hike before most of us have stumbled into our first cup of tea. Located beside three of the Mountain West’s most revered rivers, the Clark Fork, Bitterroot and Big Blackfoot, Missoula’s winters are surprisingly mild relative to the rest of the state.

The Missoula Cultural Council shepherds the aesthetic offerings, including the unusual (sculptor Marilyn Lysishir’s "Good Girls 1968," ceramic portraits of the artist’s high school classmates), to the more predictable, ("Winter Wildlife Season at the National Bison Range"). The 33rd International Wildlife Film Festival in early May is one of more than two-dozen festivals that round out the year.
