Polebridge. Often considered one of the most remote places in
the lower 48, Polebridge is little more than a store to stock up
on baked goods and sandwiches before heading into the north-
western part of Glacier. If you plan on visiting Bowman or Kintla
lakes, you'll drive right by the front of the Polebridge Mercantile.
I recommend a stop, especially for their fresh-baked pastries.
There is so much more to Flathead County, but let's end with
the recreational activities that abound here. Both Flathead Lake
and Glacier National Park are partially within Flathead Coun-
ty, and an easy drive from Kalispell. Fifteen miles north of Ka-
lispell, Whitefish is home to both Whitefish Lake and the Big
Mountain, western Montana's premier ski resort. Golfers have
their choice of six courses. As I mentioned before, the Great
Northern Historical Trail provides bikers and hikers miles of
pavement to see the county up close. And if you like camping
with waterfront access, Flathead County is dotted with smaller
lakes perfect for swimming, fishing and boating of all kinds. For
recreation, it's hard to beat Flathead County.
And getting here is easy as well. Driving, US 2 and 93 are your
east-west and north-south arteries. Amtrak has scheduled stops
at Whitefish and West Glacier, and if they know you want them
to, they'll even stop at Essex. Glacier Park International, airline
code FCA, is one of Montana's busiest airports and has lodging
and car rental agencies adjacent. In summation, you have no
reason to avoid this beautiful part of Montana.
