I have only been to Montana twice, when i went out there I had success by looking at and studying the USGS topo maps and finding the fire roads. Then I found them near rivers that I 'thought' I wanted to fish, cross checked them with google earth / bing birds eye to see if the water looked wade'able (ie not rapids etc). once I had those spots marked on a map I was in a local shop buying some gear and ran some of those spots by the guys in the shop for their opinion. I think that initial leg work helped leaps and bounds.
You can print usgs maps online, however I think the quality isn't great, and I even have the ability to print them on 24x36" paper. You can get the good ones at their facility in Reston off of Sunrise Valley Drive. Going to the facility also can let you look at multiple maps before making a purchase.

Dee to fish the Missouri and GlacierNP for 9 days starting Saturday. I know the 'Mo gets super crowded so I'm curious if there are any worthwhile tribs to wade up and fish. The Deerborn looks promising. Montana has some of the best wading access laws in the country so private access shouldn't be an issue. Thanks again- y'all always set me straight. -Alex
