Red Lodge, Montana 59068-0151 These are some statistics I found today (June 26, 2004) Take it with a grain of salt - specially snowfall in Red Lodge, which is wishful thinking for the ski-run and totally unrealistic for the town, shoveling snow is NOT a daily activity here. The sunny days are likely to be 250+ |
