At this biking hotspot, Cricket Butler offers travelers everything they need to explore Montana’s most beautiful trails. From fat-tire biking on snow-covered trails to summer rides through the mountains, Whitefish is a year-round respite for outdoor adventurers.
“I think Montana is a special place for biking,” said Butler. “It’s boundless. And the places that your bike can take you, you just won’t find that anywhere else.”
