Seasons Seasons
In the early spring many waterfalls in Montana are still iced over. By April things start to really thaw out. The months of April and May are the high water months where the traveler can witness the power of larger volumes of water. Summertime is the best time to access waterfalls of higher elevations. The weather at this time is usually quite good. Fall can give off spectacular colors and overcast days good for long exposure photography. Finally it takes a true waterfall lover to venture out into the cold and potentially inaccessible locations of winterized waterfalls. However, these trips can be highly rewarding. Some of the best waterfall photographs we have were taken in January. All in all, pack gear for any weather. We have been snowed on in July and sun baked into sunbathing in February.

Access Getting there
Many of Montana's waterfalls lie close to major roads and highways making them highly accessible to almost anyone (ex: Kootenai Falls, Skalkaho Falls, and Natural Bridge Falls). However, many exist in deep gorges, remote locations and steep mountainous areas with limited access. Some of these places may be hard to get to and potentially hazardous. If the location is on private land always ask for permission from the owner before trespassing. We will always do our best to give you the best directions we can find.

Camping Camping and lodging
Camping in Montana can highly rewarding or downright miserable if the conditions are just right. Always educate yourself on current weather and road conditions. We also recommend learning about recreating around Bears, Bison, Mountain Lions and other wild animals. The more educated you are, chances are, the better your trip is going to be. There are many hotels, motels and fancy lodges scattered across Montana. We hope to provide you with a cornucopia of these places to brighten your overall experience.

History Historical references
Montana is a historically rich state. From the history of Native Americans such as the Blackfeet, Flathead and Crow to the Gold hungry settlers, many of the stories from history are embedded in the names of Montana's waterfalls.
