Wild Montana (Butte)
A proud history, unrefined nature and first-rate facilities combine to make any meeting here an unforgettable adventure
Like many Montana communities, Butte came into existence because of the promise of easy gold. But by 1870, gold mining had all but died. Then, miners struck the richest deposit of copper ever found. The discovery instantly turned many of the town’s rough-and-tumble miners into wealthy copper barons, and put Butte permanently on the map.
