CONSUMER PUBLICATIONS

Travel Montana publications provide flavorful and factual coverage of Montana's year-round recreation and attractions to visitors of all ages. They are often a potential visitor's first glimpse at what Montana has to offer and play an important part in the vacation planning process of travelers. Providing accurate, reader-friendly information, the guides are easy to use and visually portray Montana at its best. The publications also present Montana businesses with affordable opportunities to advertise through its consumer guides.

In recent years the guides have been designed to include information on Travel Montana's web site, visitmt.com. Consumers can use the printed guides, supplemented by visitmt.com as a virtual guide through the Internet to make vacation plans and to access information about Montana attractions, accommodations and more.
