Bigfork, Montana |
Bigfork during an Independence Day parade |
Located on the northeast corner of Flathead Lake, Bigfork is the present home of actor Dirk Benedict (I remember him most from The A-Team). Bigfork is at that place where the Swan River flows into Flathead Lake. This is one of the most beautiful, outdoor-sports-friendly locales in Montana. On the south side of town is Wayfarers State Park. |
