When it comes to Central Montana, the question is, how far back in time would you like to go? To 1960s kitsch at the Sip’n Dip in Great Falls, a tiki bar with live performing mermaids? To Rockwellian winters, schussing the time-honored slopes of Montana’s oldest ski area? Or back to painter Charlie Russell’s frontier West, viewed from the windows of a dinner train? Here, you’ll experience Fort Benton’s days as a fur-trading outpost, Lewis and Clark’s 1805–06 Montana expedition, and Bear Paw Battlefield, where Chief Joseph resigned to “fight no more forever.”
