Montana Facts & Trivia
The town of Ekalaka was named for the daughter of the famous Sioux chief, Sitting Bull. Fife is named after the type of wheat grown in the area or, as some locals contend, by Tommy Simpson
for his home in Scotland. Fishtail is named for either a Mr. Fishtail who lived in the area or as the area Indians prefer for some of
the peaks in the nearby Beartooth Mountain Range which look like the tail of a fish. The Yaak community is the most northwestern settlement in the state.

Montana Facts & Trivia The first luge run in North America was built at
Lolo Hot Springs on Lolo Pass in 1965. Combination, Comet, Keystone, Black Pine, and
Pony are names of Montana ghost towns. Virginia City was founded in 1863 and is consid-
ered to be the most complete original town of its kind in the United States.
The most visited place in Montana is Glacier Na-tional Park, known as the crown jewel of the con-tinent. It lies along Montana's northern border and adjoins Waterton Lakes National Park in Canada, forming the world's first International Peace Park.
The bitterroot is the official state flower.
