Missoula to Swan River Valley/Flathead Valley and Back - By pthor

This is a good days ride, riding around Flathead lake, the largest natural lake the side of the Mississippi is beautiful the entire way, like every place in Montana. Plenty of amenities from start to finish and several lakes along the way. The only downside I saw of this trip was the long section near Seeley lake, although pretty it is very straight and just seems to drag on for a long time with nothing but, close tree is hugging the road.
