MT 82 begins at the intersection with US 93 north of Somers. It proceeds east across mostly flat rural terrain before curving south and east, crossing the Flathead River and climbing a forested hill up to its eastern terminus at MT 35, just north of MT 83 and about three miles (4.8 km) north of Bigfork.
MT 82 passes through rural and forest landscape, and wildlife crossings should be expected at all times.
Historyedit
A road connecting US 93 in Somers and MT 35 has existed since at least the early 1930s, and can be seen on the 1935 state map.[2]
The original routing followed Somers Road through the community. The current alignment north of Somers was completed in 1952.[1]
MT 82 was originally designated as Secondary Highway 208 (S-208), and was among the first of the new secondary routes established in 1942.[3] It was not formally signed until 1960, and was signed until 1978, when it received its current MT 82 designation.[4][5] The S-208 designation was later reused on an unrelated highway in northern Phillips County, Montana.
