Dillon, Montana

Dillon, Montana located in the Beaverhead Valley near 
Yellowstone National Park.



The town began in 1880 when the Union Pacific Railroad made it a construction
stopping point between Utah and Butte, Montana.




Cabin built in 1885 on town lot purchased for $1.00.



Sheepherder's wagon built early 1900's. 
(early motorhome, complete with bed and wood stove)
The fertile valley is a good location for farming, cattle and sheep ranches.


Sweetwater Cafe is a top notch lunch spot.


Great valley & mountain views from our campground site.
