Montana is as vast as the big sky that blankets it; rich with natural resources—fertile
soil, coal, gold, forests, wind—and overflowing with beauty. From Glacier National Park to
the Little Bighorn, its sites are enchanting, and sometimes haunting. Its communities are di-
verse too, with pioneer traditions embraced by new generations of transplants in cities like
Bozeman, where ski bums and artists mingle with fifth-generation farmers. Then there are
tiny towns like Loma, at the confluence of the Milk and Marias Rivers, where the headline
is still that Lewis and Clark camped just south of town in 1805. Montana's cities make us
aware of the constant growth in the American West, while little dots on the map like Loma
remind us of its almost magical timelessness.
