Bill, Last year I did the same thing - fished on my own for a week. I fished the Madison in several places, the Gallatin, Big Hole and the rivers in Yellowstone. All were fine for a single fisherman. I would add the Missouri if I were doing it again. There are some beautiful rivers in the Bitterroot that I have targeted if I ever get back there. I can tell you a little about what I did on those if you decide to do that. I am sure that there are better minds on each but I did do well on most of them.
