7-28 to 30, 2008 Flathead Lake

Bigfork, Montana is located on the North end of Flathead lake. We stayed at the Outback Montana RV park in Bigfork. The park was beautiful and very peaceful as you can tell by the photos. While we were there, we drove all the way around Flathead lake, the largest fresh water lake in the West (about 27 miles long and 15 miles wide). For reference, Polson, MT is located on the South end of Flathead lake.

We also drove to Kalispell, Whitefish, Columbia Falls, Hungry Horse and Coram, MT. We are going to leave Glacier National Park for another trip. Each town has a charm of it's own and we have enjoyed them immensely. The water is beautiful, crisp and clear but a little too chilly for us to go swimming! I wish you all could taste these mouthwatering cherries being sold in small stands all along Flathead Lake, but you can enjoy the photos.
