amphitheater. Whitefish still retains the warm, friendly charm of its
bygone railroading days. The refurbished Great Northern Railroad Depot,
along with the western-style covered walkways, are the focal point of the
downtown area. Nestled in the majestic Rocky Mountains on the shore of
Whitefish Lake, this small, friendly Montana town offers the best in
four-season recreation. Whitefish Lake is seven miles long and is
partially within the city limits.

lager and specialty brews such as Big fog, Black Lager, and Huckleberry
Wheat Lager.

Northern Locomotive #181, one of only seven of its kind ever built, can be
seen at the museum.
