Are there a lot forests in Montana? (live in, trees)

[Cyborg]

I've never been in Montana and the Rocky mountains. In fact, I've never been in this part of the world at all because it is too far away from where I live.

I live in the Middle East so Montana, Oregon, Idaho, Washington, Alberta, British Columbia are very very far away from here (too many hours on airplane).

But how is the scenery like in Montana? Are there a lot of forests and is there a lot of snow in winter?

The thread at the top, called Picture Thread, has a lot of wonderful pictures of Montana.

Montana has plenty of snow in the winter. The terrain is varied; there are plains in the eastern part of the state and mountains in the western part. The mountains have plenty of trees but the plains don't have many.
