Libby, Montana is tucked away in the 2.2 million acre Kootenai National Forest, located in the Northwest corner of Montana. Neighboring towns, Troy and “the Yaak”, share its rugged mountain scenery. The Libby, Troy, and Yaak areas are hosts to 140 lakes, three major rivers, over 1,400 miles of trails, and hundreds of smaller rivers and streams. The three areas have become known for being a recreational paradise.

The dam holds back the 90 mile Lake Koocanusa. Flowing out of Lake Koocanusa is the Kootenai River. The river runs through the towns of Libby and Troy offering Blue Ribbon Fishing and many recreational opportunities.
