ing. Painted Rocks has RV and tent camping sites, but Lake
Como is day use only.
Hamilton and Stevensville both have public golf courses. Ste-
vensville's Whitetail Golf Course lies along the east bank of the
Bitterroot within the Lee Metcalf Wildlife Refuge, a 2,800-acre
riparian and wetland refuge just two miles north of Stevensville.
And of course, the heart of it all is the Bitterroot River which
attracts fishers, boaters and swimmers as it flows through Ravalli
County toward its confluence with the Clark Fork. Montana's
Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks has thirteen Fishing Ac-
cess Sites on the river in Ravalli County, many with boat ramps,
some with camp sites.
In short, you're never at a loss for something to do in Ravalli
County and a visit is well worth your time. For another look at
the county's history, be sure to read the article on Frank Lloyd
Wright's work in the county, elsewhere in this issue.
