City of Glasgow to Montana/North Dakota State Line: Welcome to Montana! From the wondrous geological features of Yellowstone to the majesty of Glacier, Montana\'s National Parks inspire and astound. The famous Lewis and Clark Expedition crossed Montana in 1805 and then again in 1806. Montana offers Rafting, hiking, hot springing, fly fishing, horseback riding, rock climbing, mountain biking, skiing hunting and more.
City of Wolf Point. Access to park with picnic tables and historic inforation sign. 'Wolf Point - The Lewis and Clark Expedition passed by here, Westword bound in May 1805. Fur trappers and traders followed them a few years later. Steamboats began making it from St. Louis up the Missouri as far as Fort Benton in the early 1860's. Wolf Point was the halfway point between Bismark and Fort Benton. Wood choppers supplied cord wood for boats stopping to refuel. The American Fur Company pocket Chippewa blew up and sank not far from here in 1867. A deck hand tapped a barrel of alchohol by candle light. The fumes, the candle and 25 kegs of black powder did the rest. Fortunately no lives were lost in the disaster.'
