When you want to rent a house in Montana and don't know where to start, perhaps these bargain, off the beaten path options can help. All of the rentals we've gathered here were available for about $100 per night, give or take.

How to make the best charcuterie board? Montana has several good places for you to get meats, cheeses, spreads and other items for your edible work of art.

Portions of Montana's are getting pummeled with nasty winds Tuesday. A High Wind Warning is currently in effect for some counties and High Wind Watches are in effect for others. Some areas to the west are also dealing with dangerous avalanche conditions.

The storms and atmospheric rivers that have been invading the entire northwest of the country, isn't skipping Montana mountain ranges. Avalanche danger has risen significantly and may continue to rise this week for several counties and their Montana mountain ranges.
