The Crow Tribe’s Influence on Stillwater County Bus Tour

June 27, 2025 @ 9:00 am 4:00 pm

Join the Museum of the Beartooths on Friday, June 27 for a day-long, immersive journey through the rich cultural history of the Crow Tribe in Stillwater County.

The day begins at 9:00 a.m. at the Museum with an introductory presentation by Museum Director Penny Redli and Casey Olsen of Columbus High School, offering a historical overview of the Crow Tribe’s enduring influence in the region.

At 9:00 a.m., participants will board a comfortable bus for a guided tour with stops at key historic and archaeological sites:

  • Second Crow Agency Site near Absarokee
    Learn about the in-depth archaeological research conducted at this significant site, active from 1875 to 1884, and explore the artifacts and stories that have brought its history to life.
  • Stillwater Buffalo Jump (Ammishéelahpee) near Nye
    After a delicious lunch provided by the Fishtail Store, the tour continues to this sacred hunting ground, in use as early as 300 A.D. A vital location for multiple Native tribes, the buffalo jump offers a powerful glimpse into the traditional lifeways of the Crow people.

Registration: $50 per person (includes lunch).
Educator rate available, plus renewal units for professional development.

Space is limited—reserve your spot today by calling the Museum at (406) 322-4588.
