"Trails are the passageways that connect us to outdoor adventures. The Last Best TRAILS is about year-round real-life human-powered trail sports in the greater Bozeman and Big Sky area. The book has been ""drawn"" from the past six years of exploring ""The Last Best Place"" on foot, bike, and ski. Exploration and adventures shouldn't be limited to the ultra-elite athletes but our public lands. We have all ages and experience levels to celebrate and experience getting out year-round in SW Montana. This book's mission is to start the stoke about our true treasures in this region of the treasure state and give a starting point of how to get the most enjoyment out of each activity safely. So lace, buckle on your footwear, and let's get out and explore The 100 Last Best Trails!"

Reviews for The Last Best Trails

"""This book is filled with extremely valuable information that people normally spend tons of time researching. It is put together in a way that makes it easy and fun to read. The artwork is outstanding and the maps are super beneficial. QR codes make this even more than a book. This is THE perfect read for anyone with any interest in the outdoors."" -Cecelia Krichman Professionally a property manager & Outdoor Enthusiast ""The perfect guidebook for tourists and locals alike. Even as someone who has lived in Southwest Montana for a few years, I will be utilizing Bryan's book as I look to discover new trails in my own backyard."" -Dani Aravich U.S. Paralympian- Nordic Skiing & Biathlon ""Bryan has created yet another beautiful, thorough, educational and - I'd say - even inspirational guidebook for the greater Bozeman area. So much great information presented alongside his stellar hand-drawn illustrations. It'll make you want to lace up your running shoes or boots and head out the door to the closest trail or use it over time as a Bozeman bucket list of sorts."" -Justin Bigart Musician, photographer, designer, outdoor enthusiast ""Bryan's 'Last Best' series are a blended work of art and information, providing more than enough inspiration to fill your weekends for years to come. Combining all the essential biking, skiing and hiking trails in one place is a feat of work; top that off with his illustrations that showcase the beauty of Montana, and you've got one outstanding resource."" -Christoper Kussmaul Author Peaks & Couloirs of Southwest Montana"
