Montana Solunar Calendar — July 2026

The July 2026 solunar calendar for Montana covers every day of the month, with the major and minor deer movement windows, moon phase, and a fused 0–100 hunt score computed for the state's geographic center (46.92°N, 110.45°W, Mountain Time). The month moves through the Waning Gibbous, Last Quarter, Waning Crescent, New Moon, Waxing Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous and Full Moon phases, and the table below shows when each window opens and closes for that location. Whitetail rut peak in Montana is mid-November (whitetail and mule deer), so the days closest to that window are the ones to flag early. Archery is open early September – mid-October, firearm late October – late November for hunters in the field. Northern Rockies / High Plains cover is Rocky Mountain front, prairie breaks, and Missouri River-bottom cottonwoods, which shifts the value of a strong major window — wind in big timber moves scent differently than wind across open ag, and the solunar overlay is most useful when read against that terrain context.
