About Montana

Montana stretches from the peaks of the Rocky Mountains in the west to the open Great Plains in the east. Glacier National Park lies along its border with Canada, and part of Yellowstone National Park extends into the state’s south. Gold, silver, and copper mining shaped its early towns, while ranching, agriculture, and outdoor recreation remain central to life there.
