Ep. 412: Montana's Bitterroot Valley | RV travel camping rvlife rvliving rvlifestyle

The Bitterroot Valley stretches for 95 miles across southwestern Montana, along the blue ribbon trout fishery Bitterroot River. It's sandwiched between the Bitterroot Range and Sapphire Mountains, from Lost Trail Pass at its southern end to Missoula at its northern end. Lewis & Clark passed through here. It was home to Montana's first white settlement, founded by Jesuit missionaries to the Bitterroot Salish tribe. The small towns are charming, and it's a recreation paradise for hiking, biking, rafting and more. It's so beautiful, this is where they film the TV series "Yellowstone". Come along as we RV camp and explore the beautiful Bitterroot Valley!

USE WHAT WE USE

We've opened a Grand Adventure store on Amazon! https://www.amazon.com/shop/GrandAdve...

We've tried it, we've tested it, and we can heartily recommend it. No random stuff or paid product placements.

It costs you no more to shop Amazon with us, but by shopping our store a portion of each sale goes to bringing you more and better Grand Adventure videos! Thank you for clicking through to give us a look!

ABOUT US

Welcome to Grand Adventure, a YouTube channel that focuses on RV-centric outdoor activities including not only of course camping, but also mountain biking, hiking, kayaking, skiing and more, always filmed in stunning 4K.

We're based in Salt Lake City, Utah during the winter months, and invite you to come along as we travel all around North America. My wife Patricia and I, and dog Zoe are avid boondockers, so while you'll occasionally find us in RV parks or even dry campgrounds, we're usually camped in some of the most remote and beautiful spots that you could ever pull a travel trailer into. We've now transitioned from "long-timing" for six months a year, to living and traveling in our RV full-time.

We'll provide beautiful travel videos, as well as some tips and insight on trip planning, and equipping and maintaining your RV to make your next adventure a grand one indeed! So, subscribe to make sure that you catch every episode, and remember...life is nothing but a Grand Adventure!
