Lincoln County, Montana

Lincoln County is up in the northwestern corner of Montana, bordering the state of Idaho and Canada. It’s about as wild as it gets. This place is all about trees, mountains, and more trees.
You want outdoor adventure? You’ve got the Kootenai River that cuts through the county. Winters are long and snowy, perfect for hitting the slopes at Turner Mountain. Keep your eyes peeled for wildlife. You might spot a grizzly or a moose.
Libby, the county seat, has a tough history with asbestos mining, but it’s bouncing back. But now, locals are proud of their timber heritage and aren’t afraid to show it. The area’s so remote, it feels like you’re in the middle of nowhere. If you’re looking to get away from it all, Lincoln County’s your spot.
