Exploring Missoula, Where College Town Meets Ski Town

Engerbretson is joined by Kyle Sillars, a local skier who’s also the head brewer at Draught Works Brewery. He sums up why Missoula is a dream town for skiers and outdoor adventurers of every stripe. “I love it for the diversity of recreation,” says Sillars. “We have great skiing, year-round biking, climbing, and kayaking. And Snowbowl is great because it’s steep with just over 2,000 vertical feet. It has a lot of character.”
