Itinerary

1. Carbon County Art Guild & Depot Gallery

Founded in 1973 by enthusiastic and forward-thinking Carbon County citizens, the Guild originally operated from the County Courthouse Annex. Initially members focused on acquiring equipment, holding classes and fundraising. In 1982, after several moves and searching for a dedicated space, the Burlington Northern Railroad miraculously donated the Red Lodge depot to the Guild. Built in 1889, this classic Craftsman style depot had provided many passengers their first glimpse of Red Lodge and the Beartooths Mountains.

Duration: 10 mins

2. Yellowstone Wildlife Sanctuary

Plan your visit to Yellowstone Wildlife Sanctuary to meet bears, cats, fox, raptors, and other rescued Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem animals.

3. Montana Candy Emporium

Nostalgic old-time candies, handmade delights, and huckleberry originals. A local gem with a host of western antiques, player piano, and even a taxidermy ostrich.

4. The red brick 35 room Hotel began building in 1893. Originally named The Spofford Hotel, The Pollard was built between the train passenger depot and the booming mountain mining town. Described by the Livingston Herald as "Handsomely furnished in hand-oiled pine, The Spofford Hotel was bought in 1902, renamed as The Pollard and added twenty-five guest rooms, an ornate lobby, an intimate dining room, a lounge with a bar and card and billiard tables, one bowling alley, and full-service barbershop. Famous names such as William Jennings Bryan, the known silver-tongued orator, and William and Marcus Daly, the copper kings, signed the early registers. Buffalo Bill Cody spent many an evening in the lobby swapping tales with local old timers. Calamity Jane would occasionally interrupt the quietness of the hotel with her, well, calamity. And Liver Eatin' Johnson, noted Indian scout who lived near Red Lodge, frequented our establishment.

5. Carbon County Historical Society and Museum

Carbon County Historical Society & Museum was first established in 1959 by Alice Greenough to house the collection of her world-renowned rodeo family. The Carbon County Historical Society was formed in 1974 and took over the museum facility in 1980. In 1990, the three-story Labor Temple building was gifted to the Carbon County Historical Society by an anonymous donor. The Labor Temple was built in 1909, entirely by the Red Lodge Miners Local No. 1771, and put on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. The historical society reopened the museum's doors with a newly remodeled basement and first floor in 1999.
