The fabulous Cafe Regis in tiny Red Lodge, Montana
Billings, Montana
The booming Billings is easily the largest city in Montana (population 105,000). It doesn’t have the same charm as Bozeman, though that may have something to do with the main drag being all dug up when I pass through. It is worth heading up Overlook Drive for a panoramic view of the city, set in the Yellowstone River Valley, with the Pryor Mountains to the south. Area attractions have an aboriginal theme: Pompeys Pillar National Monument (with its petroglyphs), Pictograph Cave State Park and, further afield, Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument.
