The Bitterroot runs the entire length of the valley, and there are numerous fishing access sites so you can take advantage of all the fantastic trout fishing on the river or put in a boat and float for more fishing and scenery on the water. There are hundreds of thousands of acres of the Bitterroot National Forest nearby as well!!
