Amazing Grindline park dubbed by many as one of the top 5 parks in the country. The Mobash Skatepark has a separate street complete with granite ledges and a huge bank wall separating it from the bowls. The tranny section is massive with everything from mellow to cradle to gnarly. Then for the purist there is the kidney bowl complete with death box and love seat. That is just the tip of the iceberg. This park is a must skate for all Montanans and visitors alike.

The park is located conveniently across the river from downtown missoula. Close to to good food and Missoula has arguably the best night life in Montana.

Eats: La Parilla - damn tasty burritos. damn tasty! Also, it is owned by a skater - fireman matt.

Taco Del Sol - helped out the Missoula Skatepark Assoc. in a huge way. Good tacos and burritos. They even sell beer.

Dinosaur Cafe - cajun style grub. spicy, tasty, delicious. Kind of a bonus that it is located in the back of Charlie B's bar so you can sit your ass down on a stool and not leave until you are thoroughly pickled.

Missoula Club - kind of a landmark in Msla. It's a sports bar, but not the kind that is loaded with shitheads with upside down visors and bleach blond hair. Cool old local sports photos on the wall. Peanut shells belong on the floor. Really good cheeseburgers. Great beer.

Old Post Pub - Another spot that was very generous to the efforts of the Msla Skatepark Assoc. They hosted a couple of MSA events and gave some $$ to the park. Good pub food. Delicious beer.
