Pick up a MT gazeteer.
Drive or fly too Helena, Missoula area then take hwy 200 north.
I like the Augusta area in west MT. Beautiful area to explore. head north up to Glacier NP/Watertown up in Canada then head south and go through Great Falls then down hwy 89 south to Livingtson, Big Timber and check out YNP if you want. Take hwy 212 to red lodge, cooke city.
Use the gazeteer and dont be afraid to take back roads. In fact I encourage this. Stop in the small towns in cafes and chat with the locals
get a fishing license and bring a fly rod a few orange stimis in size 14, purple haze in 16 , pt's or a spinning reel and little cleos with single hooks. Plenty of hiking in all areas driving through. Bring bear spray if hiking and practice using it before you hike.
