Chief Plenty Coups State Park
Within the Crow Indian Reservation in south-central Montana, 40 minutes south of Billings, lies a day-use park preserving Chief Plenty Coups' log home, sacred spring, and farmstead. This National Historic Landmark belonged to Plenty Coups (Aleek-chea-ahoosh, meaning "many achievements"), a man who transitioned from a warrior to a peacemaker, bridging the gap between cultures. Honored for his bravery and leadership, he became chief of the Apsáalooke (Crow) tribe at just 28. The park covers 195 acres of his land and features a Visitor Center commemorating his life and efforts to lead his people towards settled reservation living. Walk the 3/4 mile trail and enjoy the shaded picnic area.

Walnut Canyon
Archeologists have long been fascinated by the Sinagua people, who mysteriously disappeared from Walnut Canyon around 1400. While we may never know exactly what happened to them, new evidence suggests they may have simply relocated to a more hospitable climate. According to recent studies, the Sinagua were ingenious farmers who knew how to make the most of their limited resources. They grew small gardens of corn, squash and beans on the canyon rims, and utilized limestone alcoves for shelter. However, as the climate grew drier and the summers hotter, it became increasingly difficult to grow crops in the canyon. In search of a more temperate climate, the Sinagua may have simply moved to a different region – taking their agricultural knowledge with them. The site has been repeatedly plundered over the years.

Gates of the Arctic
Gates of the Arctic National Park is one of the most remote and pristine national parks in the United States. It is also one of the least visited, due to its remote location. The park is only accessible by plane or by foot, and there are no roads or trails within its boundaries. However, those who make the effort to visit Gates of the Arctic are rewarded with breathtaking views of some of the most untouched natural beauty in the world. Glaciers have carved deep valleys into the landscape, and wild rivers flow through them. The endless summer light fades into aurora-lit night skies in winter. Gates of the Arctic remains virtually unchanged except by the forces of nature.
