Central Montana welcomes you to Russell Country!


Charlie Russell was a man with a way of expressing himself; of showing just how deep his feelings for this part of Montana ran.  And once you've been here a while, you will begin to understand.  When you've watched the sun go down and paint the sky over Square Butte, or have seen the beauty of a herd of deer, a covey of grouse or the majesty of a bull elk; when you see a trout tail walk across a rushing stream, or walk through a field of wildflowers - then you can begin to feel what ol' Charlie felt.  We know.  We've lived here all our lives.  And we would love to share it.
