Oh and Bowman lake... this is a favorite spot of mine. I must disagree with Jeff on camping at this location, they have a nice and relatively large campground in close proximity to the lake.
I recommend taking a kayak.
The campground is first come first served, the trick is to be there no later than 10;00am , people will be leaving and you will have a choice of spots. Great hiking trails around Bowman also.
I would skip Kintla, tiny campground and limited views.

Bowman....

Polebridge Mercantile is indeed a wonderful place to stop - rather out-of-the-way up the North Fork - but the cookies and pies are delicious. Stopped there in 2004, following a reunion in Missoula and, had cherry pie and a soft drink on the porch. Lots of memories. Thanks for posting the picture.
