Native Americans
have inhabited this land for
thousands of years. 200 years ago Lewis and
Clark traversed what would one
day be known
as Montana.
Discovered in the 1860s,
gold
attracted men with visions of riches. Outlaws,
cattle,
cowboys and
railroads
quickly followed.
The story of the 20th century became a saga
of ranching, mining, logging, tourism and
the preservation of nature's treasures. Today,
Montana's treasures are found in the state's
environment, while technology transforms
old industries and creates new economies.
In Montana, the old and new await you. |
