Missoula, Montana

A free, self-guided Missoula scavenger hunt (no tickets, no tour guide)

trouvé's drops are a scavenger hunt you can start any time, free, with real rewards from local businesses at the end. Find a drop on the map, walk there, claim it in person. That is drop hunting. This page is two walking routes you can do this week.

How it works

  1. 01

    Open the map

    Download trouvé and see drops pinned at real Missoula businesses. Each drop shows the reward and who sponsored it.

  2. 02

    Walk there

    Go in person. When GPS puts you in range, hold to claim. No QR codes, no receipt photos, no points for sitting at home.

  3. 03

    Claim the reward

    Take it at the counter: a cookie, a sandwich, a plant, vendor credit. You also earn Zapp, the app's points.
