Montana has an absolute wealth of hiking. Between the massive National
Forest lands that are home to some of the largest wilderness areas in
the United States, Glacier National Park, Yellowstone National Park and
other public lands....I've found one of the most difficult decisions
you have when planning a hiking trip in Montana is where to start.
Not surprisingly, with so many places to hike, along with the ever-increasing
popularity of day hiking and backpacking, many books have been written
about hiking in Montana. Listed on this page are all the books I've been
able to track down that are about the hiking opportunities in Montana
(and in parts of Wyoming & Idaho, too).
All of these books are available through Amazon.
