PEDS 651 – Pediatric Clerkship Bozeman, MT
Bozeman is the gem of Big Sky Country, bustling with activities for all seasons. Winter brings powder to the peaks at Bridger Bowl Ski Area and nearby Big Sky Ski Resort, while the spring brings high waters and thrilling rafting on the Gallatin River. Summer is splendid for backpacking the Gallatin Divide, and fall colors bring nearby Yellowstone Park to life as the wildlife come out to mate. The city’s cultural scene thrives with annual events like the American Indian Pow Wow and the rodeo.
Bozeman has a population of approximately 50,000 people, making it the fourth largest city in Montana. It is a very active community surrounded by mountains with an abundance of recreational activities, including skiing, mountain biking, kayaking, fishing, and hiking. Bozeman is also home to Montana State University.
