The valley enjoys an average of 275 of sunshine annually and the winter snows rarely stay on the valley floor more than a few days. However, during the winter travel season our highways 97 and 161 can become challenging. The Butte Valley Chamber of Commerce provides these pages to assist locals and visitors alike. When weather conditions warrant, we take additional time and effort to travel safely.
