 Polson
lies at the south end of Flathead Lake in northwestern
Montana. The Flathead is a prime cherry growing region
with many cherry orchards throughout the area. The Flathead
River that flows from Polson features whitewater rafting
and Kerr Dam. The broad, sweeping valley south of Polson
is bordered by the rugged, snow-capped Mission Mountains.
The National Bison Range at Moiese with its large herds
of bison, elk, deer, antelope and bighorn sheep is nearby.
