Spent 15 years in the Missoula area. First, there are tons of bicyclists who pass through Montana every summer enjoying the beauty of the state. That in itself won"t be a problem.
As with every state, the vast majority of the people are good people (my opinion). That being said I wouldn"t go into some small town cafes and bars and start spouting off about how those darn miners and loggers are raping the countryside.
There are some bitter people who have seen good paying jobs disappear in the forests and mines in part because of environmental regulations. And the last thing they want to hear is some outsider telling them how to live their lives.
So if you have a chance to talk with your son, tell him to enjoy the scenery, spend a lot of time listening, and if necessary bite his tongue when it comes to hot-button issues.
The people in that state are "salt of the earth", but some of them are frustrated by low wages and "outsiders" buying up all the prime property and driving up the prices.
For what it"s worth, I"d still be in the state if it weren"t for the financial reasons. I loved it there but left for a better job.
