Please do not rely on a GPS when traveling from the west. The old 4th Street Bridge has been closed to traffic over 25 years. However many new GPS systems still try to send the driver across it from Columbia Falls to our B&B. Just stay on Hwy 2 through Columbia Falls to Hwy 206. Go south and then the GPS will correct itself.
