“Montana’s Biggest Weekend” Sounds Like a Great Time

"Montana's Biggest Weekend" is a bold claim. Many towns and cities across the Treasure State have pretty epic weekends, from the big music festivals in Western Montana to the Bucking Horse Sale in Miles City; we aren't shy when it comes to good times, especially in the summer.

Labor Day marks the unofficial end of summer, and the folks in Dillon, MT are ready to back up their claim of hosting Montana's Biggest Weekend. To be fair... it does sound pretty epic. Hosted by the Dillon Jaycees, here's what to expect.

From hot springs to Vigilantes, Southwest Montana is fun.

The Southwest corner of Montana is one of my favorite places. My wife and I spent a long weekend in the area last summer, visiting Virginia City, Ennis, Ruby Reservoir, and other fun stops along the way.

If you haven't been in the Dillon area for a while, give it a revisit. If you've never been, go! After all, who wouldn't want to be a part of Montana's Biggest Weekend? VisitMT.com has a great itinerary HERE.
