Dimming Trail Across Montana a Centuries-Old Indian Route
A long forgotten Indian highway linked Central America to the Arctic along the eastern Rockies. The Old Travois Trail carried travois families, mounted scouts, and fur trade routes used by Blackfeet, Flatheads, Kootenais, and Hudson Bay traders. Visible remnants, mountain scenery, and battlefield sites dot Glacier Park and Two Medicine regions as time erodes the path once vital to war parties and trade.
