Weekend PICKS: Thursday, January 23rd thru Sunday, January 26th
How did we make it to the last weekend of January already? Everybody good? We’re ready, and all your options are here for Western Montana with The Missoula Underground’s Weekend PICKS!
ALL the local ski resorts are open, with fresh snow again going into the weekend. All are grooming and adding open lifts. Lolo Pass Visitors Center and Chief Joseph are fluffy and groomed, and several areas in the Flathead have excellent trails ready for XC skiing. Rattlesnake and Pattee are being freshly groomed in the canyons for classic XC. MTB Missoula has added winter grooming to the trails at Marshall Mountain Park for fat bikes, courtesy of Fat Bike Missoula – cool development! Pull up and bookmark The MUG’s Western Montana Snow Conditions – all in one place to make your plans.
No matter what direction you wanna get outta town, you can’t go wrong. Lots of winter activities and events are happening not only around Missoula, but all the way up the Flathead and the Bitterroot valleys, east to Phillipsburg and Anaconda, and out west past Alberton. If you’re headed up to Whitefish and Glacier, there are some outstanding pit stops to make along the way.
Get out & enjoy our locally-owned bars & restaurants with Montana grown / made food and beverages – they need your business! Try a new seasonal local brew! Support our local artists and vendors at the area seasonal markets. Take the family for a brisk outdoor hike. Get out for some prime skiing. Catch a classic movie screening or a stand-up comedy night. Stretch that big brain at one of the local trivia nights. Sing your favorite karaoke song, or catch a live music show. Enjoy safely and responsibly.
