From Cattle Drives to Cultural Treasures: Grant-Kohrs Ranch and Deer Lodge, Montana

On episode 54, we travel beyond Glacier National Park to the Grant-Kohrs Ranch National Historic Site in Deer Lodge Montana. If you are buying an airplane ticket to get to Glacier National Park, consider spending some extra time in the state. This episode continues a series of extra adventures beyond GNP.  Part of a multi-episode journey through Montana, we have more on the way in future episodes with more things you can do while you are visiting in the state of Montana.

Visiting Grant-Kohrs Ranch National Historic Site

The Grant-Kohrs Ranch National Historic Site is about 5 hours south of Glacier National Park.  This ranch commemorates the Western cattle industry from its 1850s inception through recent times. The 1,618 acres historic site (originally designated a National Historic Landmark in 1960) is maintained today as a working ranch by the National Park Service.

On this episode, we discuss our stops for our one day in Deer Lodge Montana:  

• Grant-Kohrs Ranch National Historic Site
• Old Montana Prison
• Montana Auto Museum
• and more

On our Foodie Corner, we stop at Prison Cow Ice Cream.
