Evaro is located 4 miles north of Missoula on the southern tip of the Flathead Indian Reservation. Evaro Hill on Highway 93 is a stretch of road that steadily climbs from the Missoula valley to Evaro and serves as a local landmark. The Flathead Indian Reservation is home to three tribes, the Bitterroot Salish, Upper Pend d'Oreille, and the Kootenai. "Confederated Salish" refers to both the Salish and Pend d'Oreille tribes and extends between Missoula and Kalispell, with fertile valleys and towering mountain peaks surrounding 1.2 million acre reservation.
