Helena Teacher Survives Midnight Stage Snowbound Ordeal
Miss Belle Johnston, a Helena schoolteacher in 1878, rode a New Year’s Eve stage from Fort Shaw to Chestnut Valley alone during a blizzard. When the driver vanished and the team wandered off, she took the reins, drove through 30 below zero, and found help at Dearborn Crossing after guiding the stalled coach for hours. The driver Cal Adams survived, later recovering, while Johnston continued teaching in Montana.
