Lewis & Clark, Custer, Sitting Bull and Calamity Jane may be long gone, but they are not forgotten in Billings. Museums, galleries and landmarks honoring these legendary characters from the Old West dot the city, making it a history buff's dream destination. Surrounded by six breathtaking mountain ranges, Billings also offers plenty of opportunities for fresh air recreation, including hiking, biking, golf and viewing rare Montana wildlife. Spend time at the Western Heritage Center, an interactive museum full of clothing and remarkable artifacts from the Yellowstone River Valley. In the early 1900s, the railroad brought wealth to Billings and testaments of this prosperity are still standing. Be sure to visit the regal Moss Mansion, designed by architect H.J. Hardenbergh (who also designed the Waldorf-Astoria and Plaza Hotels in New York City). In the more modern realm, MetraPark offers horse racing, rodeos, concerts, fairs and other types of entertainment everyone will enjoy. And kids of all ages will enjoy the animals and games at ZooMontana.

We have been to Billings several times for weekend trips, but this was the first time going to Scheels. I never knew they had so much fun stuff! We spent a few hours there and throughly enjoyed it! My husband and I took turns taking the kids on the Ferris wheel, then went upstairs to the play target practice area. There are fun little spots to take photos, lots of animals to see, an arcade, and plenty of things to buy! Definitely worth a visit!

What a great idea to have a coop bookstore! What a great selection including Montana authors. And coffee/tea as well. We were so pleasantly surprised it was open on Sunday. A great find!!
