Getting Around
The region is BIG. It stretches over 400,000 square miles (over 1 million square kilometres) but holds less than 3 million people. That works out to less than three people per square kilometre. Montana alone is roughly the size of Germany. In many areas, there is more wildlife than people and it stretches across three different time zones. This lends well to easy driving, whether you’re in a car, RV or motorcycle.
