W. C. McRae and Judy Jewell, outdoors enthusiasts and former coworkers at legendary Powell’s Books in Portland, have covered some of the most rugged destinations in the U.S.: Montana, Utah, and Zion & Bryce. They continue their tradition with the latest edition of Moon Montana. From the wilderness of Yellowstone to the eastern prairies, McRae and Jewell lead travelers to the best of the Big Sky Country, offering unique travel strategies such as a “Hot Springs Tour of Montana,” and for the history buff, “Following Lewis and Clark’s Corps of Discovery.” Whether it’s cross-country skiing at Glacier National Park, observing elk at Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge, or finding the best “watering hole” in Missoula, Moon Montana gives travelers the tools they need to create a more personal and memorable experience.
