We are Thankful for the Timeless Artifacts of the dinosaurs and the opportunity to learn about the prehistoric history of Northeast Montana. Dinosaurs once roamed the land that we now call Missouri River Country, and their lasting legacy can be viewed and experienced at museums throughout the region.

We are thAnkful for the American Indian Heritage of our region and the tribes that call this place home. Our first settlers arrived 5,000 years ago. Lewis and Clark may have been early visitors to Missouri River Country, but when they arrived the region was already home to the Assiniboine people. Members of the Sioux Nation call our corner of Montana home, and their proud cultural heritage continues to be celebrated today.
We are thaNkful for No Light Pollution which allows the night skies in Missouri River Country to shine brighter than you could ever imagine. Uninterrupted views of the Milky Way and Northern Lights can be seen in Northeastern Montana where the best show happens live each night in the Big Sky.

And finally, we are thankfuL for living with more room to roam. Life moves a little slower in Missouri River Country, and we wouldn't trade that pace for anything. The skies are bigger, the landscape is broader, and the opportunities to find yourself are greater. More room to roam means more time to leave your worries in the dust.
