Fall has arrived! And in Missoula, it's quite the sight. Bright orange, red and yellow leaves dangle from the boulevard trees, creating a cozy canopy to walk, bike or picnic beneath. The sky is blue, the sun in shining and it's the perfect temperature for a light sweater. Ideal, right? So, in addition to our stellar indoor events, we have a killer list of outdoor activities perfectly suited for the season. From football games and wine tasting events to a family-friendly pumpkin festival and several fall gatherings, there is no shortage of fun to be had this month. Our events calendar is always full, so we are here to help you out. Here are our picks for a perfect October in Missoula.
