Bitterroot Valley Scenic Drive (US-93)
US-93 runs roughly 100 miles along the Bitterroot Valley from Missoula south through Florence, Stevensville, Victor, Hamilton, and Darby toward the Lost Trail Pass on the Idaho border. The road follows the base of the jagged Bitterroot Range to the west and the rolling Sapphire Mountains to the east, passing St. Mary's Mission (Montana's first permanent settlement) and the Lee Metcalf National Wildlife Refuge. South of Conner the road climbs and begins to wind through alpine terrain with notable switchbacks. An official Montana Scenic Drive.
