I have been fortunate to visit 49 of the States. I haven't been to North Dakota. Think I'll be able to knock this off the list when I take a drive up to Churchill Manitoba to see the Polar Bears. Working on the dates for this trip.

There are no roads to Churchill. Really!! How do people get there? Is it a "fly-in" destination? Must admit to knowing nothing about it. One of the reasons why I like this board, as I learn a lot from you all about places in North America.

Yeah...fly or train from Thompson. Not a cheap destination. I lived in Manitoba for four years and never made it up there.

78 ~~~ 13 Top-Rated Attractions & Things to Do in Billings, MT www.google.com.au/search?q=greatest+attractions+billings+montanawww.planetware.com/montana/top-rated-attractions-things-to-do-in-billings-mt-us-mt-51.htmUpdated: 26 July 2021 On the banks of the Yellowstone River in south-central Montana, Billings is Montana's largest city, with over 100,000 residents. Far from crowded, though, Billings is known as Montana's Trailhead and is surrounded by Big Sky landscapes and public spaces that cater to hiking, mountain biking, and easily escaping into nature. The city itself is backdropped by magnificent sandstone cliffs known as the Rimrocks.
It's not just the rugged and wild scenery that makes Billings a popular destination of the region; an abundance of things to do draws visitors from across the state. And the attractions of Billings do well to embody the western culture and wide-open spaces of the American West.
Alongside numerous sidewalk patios and local shops, popular downtown tourist attractions include Western Art museums and historic theaters. Downtown is also the epicenter for big community celebrations, including parades, art walks, and a weekly "Alive After 5" concert series throughout the summer.
History still rings from the streets in Billings, especially at places like the nationally accredited Western Heritage Center or the artifact-filled Yellowstone County Museum. On the southwest side of downtown, the Moss Mansion, constructed in 1903, is one of the best-preserved examples of early development in Billings. For a much deeper historical perspective, the nearby caves at Pictograph Caves State Park are adorned with artwork over 2,000 years old.
For more ideas on places to visit, read our list of the top things to do in Billings.

80 ~~~ The Most Beautiful Place in Each U.S. State ~ T & L ~~~ From magical deserts to beautiful beaches, these are the most beautiful places in the U.S. Mother Nature wasn't modest with America, where her handiwork ranges from magical desert mesas to wooded river valleys to whisper-thin barrier islands. You might even say she was particularly heavy-handed when doling out American scenery. The natural beauty found across the 50 states is so vast and staggering, it's practically impossible to make sense of — though you can't say we didn't try. Here, our totally subjective, state-by-state list of the most beautiful places in the U.S. www.travelandleisure.com/trip-ideas/most-beautiful-places-in-the-us18 May 2022
