Look in all directions around Missoula, Montana for some of the best lake recreation around. Bring your boat for some wonderful adventures. There are a number of destinations you won't want to miss.
At Swan Lake, at 2,500 feet above sea level, you will find a 20-mile long, 1-mile wide lake with some of Montana's most scenic mountain country. Swan Mountain Range is to the east and the woods around you populated with fir and birch. On shore see plenty of woodpeckers and chipmunks, sometimes black bears searching for berries. Camping is nearby. Only electric motored boats are allowed, no combustion engines.
With summer temperatures only reaching around the mid 80's or low 90's, you'll find the weather perfect for boating on Flathead Lake. This lake is 30 miles long and 15 miles wide at the widest point, only about one hour north of Missoula. If you are fishing from your boat, you will need extra line because the lake is about 300 feet deep.
Other destinations for your boating trip are Georgetown Lake, where you can catch some Kokanee salmon, or Seeley Lake that harbors nesting birds in its marshy environment. Again, only electric motors are permitted.
