MONTANA CITY

NAME: Montana City
COUNTY: Lincoln
ROADS: 2WD
GRID: 1
CLIMATE: Snowed in much of the year, pleasant summers
BEST TIME TO VISIT: July, August only
COMMENTS: Small "old town" in a canyon on the outskirts of Libby MT. From Pioneer Park head south on Main then continue south on Cedar Creek. Montana City consists of rescued and original buildings along the creek.
REMAINS: Theatre, Saloon, etc.
Rescued and original buildings preserved by Zarita Zook (a former Hollywood dancer who fell in love with the area). When pioneer era buildings were to torn down the Zooks moved them to their site along Cedar Creek. In the 1980's they held nightly Vaudeville shows in the restored theatre and invited visitors to tour the preserved buildings. They are considering reopening the site to the public during the summers. A good place to take the kids when in the Libby area. Submitted by: David Berry
