Distinctively known as the "last great place" and proudly the farthest northwest community in Montana!

The Yaak offers an abundance of year round activity from fishing, hunting, hiking, camping, kayaking, huckleberry and mushroom picking, amazing photography and more!

The Yaak river (named by the indians - meaning arrow) flows through the mountainous northwest Montana community and meets the Kootenai river (also named by the indians - meaning bow).

The area is mostly owned by the Forest Service with only a small fraction of land owned by home and business owners.

Rugged and remote can best describe the area. A number of those who live here enjoy the solitude and are even "off the grid".
Some of the greatest handcrafted items can be found here.

The Yaak offers an excellent and definately realistic get-away from the hustle and bustle of city environments. Cell phones don't exist here, and internet access is either from satellite or dial-up.

Driving in the area is an adventure all in itself. The amazing beauty of the mountains, forests, the Yaak river streaming through the hills, the falls, and of course the wildlife!

We hope that the information you find on this growing website will provide you with the answers you need in planning your upcoming week-end or vacation.

For those in the Yaak, you are welcome to become a part of TheYaak.com and join the growing number of locals in helping to promote the area and what it has to offer!
