YELLOWSTONE

People travel from around the country and from around the world to come to Southwest Montana and experience Yellowstone National Park and the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem

West Fork Cabins are just 30 minutes from West Yellowstone, which serves as the west entrance to Yellowstone National Park. It is the busiest entrance to the park. Dining and shopping attractions, including the Playmill Theater, and the Imax theater that shows a rotating series of movies about Yellowstone, wildlife and pioneer history, are popular for tourists of all ages.

Yellowstone National Park is home to some of the finest fly fishing in the world. There are more than 100 lakes and a thousand miles of streams and rivers in Yellowstone National Park; nowhere in the world are so many public rivers and streams found in such a condensed area.

Seven varieties of gamefish live in Yellowstone: cutthroat, rainbow, brown, brook, and lake trout, along with grayling and mountain whitefish. Only cutthroats, grayling, and mountain whitefish are native to the Park.

The lakes and streams of Yellowstone offer you the unique opportunity to catch the beautiful Yellowstone Cutthroat trout and the unique Heart Lake trout. Take a trip to such world-renowned places as the Yellowstone River, Slough Creek, the Firehole, and the Madison River in the Park.
