I appreciated how they have mileage markers along the path so you can keep track of your distance without some type of technology. I also like seeing the pond with the various birds while making a couple of loops.

I liked this Gibson Park located right outside downtown Great Falls, Montana. I spent the day here…read moreyesterday (Sunday) just casually walking about the many paths/trails while of course...saying hello to all the ducks! And that's probably the claim to fame for Gibson Park. It is a nesting area or haven (or call it what you will) for hundreds of Canadian Geese, seagulls and members of the birding family. They all cohabitate together here set around a charming giant pond. So then you may be asking, why only 3 stars? Well, this park could really use a refurbishing. Like, for a day or a week, it needs to cleaned up. The amount of bird poop and small trashy items lying around were pretty evident. Walking beside the lakefront, it just felt like you're stepping on soft manure. And it made for a pretty rundown setting. But really, Gibson Park has tremendous potential. If it were a little more polished, this place could be 5 stars. Regardless, for a quiet Sunday afternoon going for a stroll and taking in some fresh air...I was happy I stopped on by here. I appreciated how some of the mamma ducks had little ducklings following them around. That's just a scene of pure innocence and heart warming. There are paved walkways, plenty of beaches to sit down on, free public restrooms, lots of grassy area to play with your dog, a playground, a skateboard park (but that was covered in graffiti) and even a snack stand area beside the duck pond. For the snack shack, they sell these slushes for $5.25 in a variety of flavors. Also on the outside menu board was cotton candy, nachos, pretzels, popcorn, candy and chips, ya know, all the good stuff that caters to kids, lol. Overall, if you do anything here, I would suggest taking some food with ya to feed the geese and ducks. I brought some pretzels with me (which I crushed up) and put pieces in the palm of my hand which the geese happily and harmlessly pecked out of my hand. So, I guess, I'm also guilty of contributing to the poop around the pond just as everyone else has, lol. Lastly, I'm pretty surprised Gibson Park has only 2 reviews? For a springtime Sunday, there were a lot young families and children present that you'd think this place would receive more recognition? Or, maybe just folks here in Great Falls, MT don't do much Yelping, lol. Either way, I did enjoy my time here and was able to overlook all the stains embedded in the pavement.

First People's Buffalo Jump Start Park is a hidden jem that's right out in the open, about 30…read moreminutes from Great Falls. It's even visible from the highway and airport. Don't follow your Garmin, though, or you will end up on top of the Buffalo jump instead of at the interpretive/visitor's center. The visitor's center does not show up on maps for some reason, but it is one of the best parts of the park. It's very large and has many displays about the history of the jump and the indigenous peoples who utilized it for hundreds of years. In addition to the displays is a classroom, outdoor patio picnic area, and amphitheater seating. There is a 3 mile loop trail and you can hike from the visitors center to the top of the Buffalo jump and vice versa. There's parking for buses and campers since it is a destination for school trips. There are large prairie dog towns in two different areas of the park and panoramic views of every direction from the top. It should go without saying there is wildlife abound. A large herd of prong horn antelope was grazing on the morning of this visit. Lots of birds can be heard and there are rattlesnakes native to the are as well. Don't let that scare you, there is lots of signage to be aware when you visit.

If you happen to be driving through on the way to Glacier National Park, this is worth a five minute peak/bathroom break if only because the third floor contains a perfectly preserved County Court House circa 1905- with the orginial gallery seats and everything! It's a pretty cool sight if you happen to be a County Court House geek like me. They also have the whole County Administration- School district, County Prosecutor, etc inside this building. Very picture-eque, and the staff was very, very, friendly!
