NE DOES NOT NORMALLY ASSOCIATE THE WORD
"ADDICTIVE" WITH A PLACE, AND THE WORD ITSELF
CARRIES A BIT OF MENACE AND FOREBODING.
But "addictive" is a word association that settles well with "e Last Best
Place." Few who visit Montana are untouched by its allure and magnificence,
whether viewed from a mountain top, across a great prairie, along a riverside
or in one of its many neighborly cities and towns.
What a place to live…What a place to visit!
If asked, visitors to Montana will often describe it as a "dream vacation,"
residents as "a dream come true." During the summer season the popula-
tion blooms from 1 million to perhaps 10 million or more, although once
removed from the airports, highways and towns you scarcely notice such
numbers. What happened to all the people? ey are all out feeding their
addiction in vast open landscapes, on gorgeous drives, on rocky slopes and
waving grasslands, in the wild and "on the town," mind-numbing beauty
and home-spun attractions in almost every direction. Adventure. Inspiration.
Spirit. at's Montana in summer.
WARNING:
LIVING IN OR VISITING MONTANA CAN BE ADDICTIVE.
ENJOYING MONTANA CAN HAVE SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES
FOR YOUR HEALTH AND WELL-BEING.

Montana should come with a Surgeon General warning that it's addictive.
e sky is big and blue, and the air is always fresh and crisp
and scented with pine. ere's a frontier spirit, but also a calmness,
beauty in the landscape that slows your pulse.
