At the border crossings between Washington and British Columbia, the agents are more rigorous about fruits & veggies, regardless of the direction you're travelling. The reason is that both Washington and B.C. have much farmland and orchards so they enforce the rules to ensure no transfer of disease or insects. I expect a crossing from Montana to B.C. would have the same rigor.
On the crossings here in Yukon, the only issue seems to be taking citrus into Alaska. Have never been asked about other fruits or veggies when travelling either direction, but then neither Alaska or Yukon have much farmland or orchards.
If you're stocking up on beer, be prepared to pay duty on quantities over the amount permitted across the border for "personal use".
