Bannack State Park

A park with over 60 original structures still standing from the 1800s, including the old hotel, the governor's mansion, the Masonic Hall and the Methodist Church.

The State of Montana deserves a lot of credit for having preserved this marvelous ghost town years ago — and for letting the ruins speak for themselves (with the help of an excellent guidebook). Visitors are given surprising freedom to roam through interiors, including on both levels of several two-story buildings. Posted signs suggest that vandalism has been a problem at times, but fortunately I saw no evidence of this during our visit (a testament to the staff).

Pure and natural river with cascading waterfalls.

Beautiful area with lots of opportunity to pull off the road and fish or take a guided fishing boat. We stayed at the Clark Canyon Dam campground and fished at the High Bridge location. Very rural and scenic.
