Destination Missoula and the Missoula Tourism Business Improvement District gratefully acknowledge and recognize the Indigenous peoples who are the original stewards of the land we now live, work, and recreate on. We are in the aboriginal territories of the Séliš (Salish), Ksanka (Kootenai) and Ql̓ispé (Kalispel) people, and we honor the path they have always shown us in caring for this place for the generations to come. As we experience and enjoy Missoula and the surrounding region, we acknowledge that we are on Indigenous land, and every river, mountain, meadow, plant, fish, animal, insect, and landmark has an Indigenous name and story.
