Why this plan works

The 3 stops cover about 0.8 miles total, which keeps you in one pocket of Bozeman instead of crossing town between them. Emerson Center for the Arts & Culture is the main event and takes the biggest block of time; the other stops are built around it. It finishes at Brigade — a short, low-effort stop you can skip if you're ready to call it. Best suited to couples, friends, adults, and solo who want a planned Bozeman outing without improvising between stops.
