From the unique to the remarkable—absorb the art, the music, the dance and the drums, the theater and the powwows, and the reenactments of Custer’s Last Stand. Purchase a hand-woven native blanket, an elegant custom-made cowboy hat, or a hand-tooled leather saddle. Then relax with a Montana microbrew and appreciate your day while counting the stars in an endless sky.

Some people think that General Custer and Chief Sitting Bull are the beginning of legend. Others believe that Lewis & Clark put us on the map. In fact, they all made history roughly 75 million years after our earlier inhabitants—Triceratops horridus (three horns), Pachycephalosaurus Wyomingenisi (dome head), and Tyrannosaurus rex, just to name a very few. Touch all their lives in museums throughout our region.

Lots for kids in Custer Country – indoor & outdoor waterparks—visit Rip the sea turtle in the largest indoor waterpark in Montana! Dig for dinosaurs—did you know that real dinosaur bones are sticky on your tongue? Ride a horse on western trails at one of our dude ranches—have you ever helped a cowboy move a herd of cattle? How about fishing for trout, riding in a boat beside hundred-foot red rock cliffs, climbing the staircase at Pompeys Pillar, or standing next to a 25-foot skeleton of an Anatosaurus copei (duck-billed Hadrosaur).
