Rock Creek Cattle Company's Montana Philipsburg setting features ponderosa pine, cottonwood, and native mountain grasses as the main pollen sources across the high mountain valley course, with exposure varying between the forested sections and the open meadow fairways. Surrounding Montana mountain woodland and ranchland contribute substantial conifer and grass pollen, while mugwort from surrounding rangeland extends exposure into September and the elevated Rocky Mountain setting means a more compressed season.

Does pollen in Missoula come from nearby or far away?

Studies show that most pollen exposure (often 70–90%) comes from nearby sources, such as local trees and vegetation. A good pollen forecast therefore depends on accurately representing local vegetation. Pollen can travel long distances, but this usually matters only early in the season or during specific wind events.

Are pollen levels in Missoula based on measurements or forecasts?

Pollen data is often misunderstood. Most "pollen levels" are not real-time measurements, but forecasts.

Direct pollen measurements are typically delayed by 1-2 days because they require manual analysis. To show current conditions in Missoula, modern forecasts combine recent measurements, weather data, and information about local vegetation.

This allows us to estimate pollen levels for today and the coming days, not just report the past.
