Meet me in Miles City

When pondering thoughts of excitement and bold undertakings, one’s mind, nor mode of transportation, doesn’t necessarily steer its first instincts towards eastern Montana – particularly the communities of Lame Deer, Broadus, Miles City and Glendive. However, realizing that the feeling of adventure is more a state of mind, Terry and I decided to put all monotonous doubts aside for this TypeRider trip and took off looking for new perspective in familiar territory – or so we thought.

Get Ready To Go

When traveling to our region, we’d like to offer up some help tips to help you pack for your trip of a lifetime.

Visiting in the Spring
Springtime in Montana and Wyoming can be extremely mild and exceptionally beautiful, but it’s not uncommon for it to snow in the middle of May.  Make sure you bring a good medium weight jacket.  A sweatshirt or two, a hat, and some gloves will also make your visit more comfortable.  You don’t need to worry about packing too heavy though – you’ll be able to experience warm sunny days worthy of a pair of shorts!

Visiting in the Summer
It gets warm around here in the summer – temperatures usually get into the upper 90’s in late June straight through August.  Make sure you have sunscreen, and you might want to pack some lotion because the air can get quite dry.  But our hot days lead to warm, beautiful star-filled nights that are just perfect for catching a baseball game or hanging out at a drive-in movie theater!
