Montana Whitewater Live Cam – Gallatin River, Montana

About this camera

This live webcam from Montana Whitewater shows the Gallatin River in south-western Montana, where the outfitter runs rafting and kayaking trips.

The Gallatin River flows north from Yellowstone National Park through the narrow Gallatin Canyon, past Big Sky and on toward the Gallatin Valley near Bozeman, where it joins the Jefferson and Madison to form the Missouri River at Three Forks. US Highway 191 follows the canyon, forming the main route between Bozeman, Big Sky and West Yellowstone.

What you'll see

  • The river's flow and water level
  • Canyon scenery and forest
  • Snow and ice in winter

The stretch through the canyon includes the famous "Mad Mile", a section of continuous whitewater popular with rafters in early summer when snowmelt peaks. The river is also renowned for fly fishing, and it featured in the film "A River Runs Through It". Summer brings busy rafting days, while winter turns the canyon quiet and snowy. The stream is provided by Montana Whitewater.
