  • Makoshika State Park Management Plan FINAL
    Makoshika State Park Management Plan FINAL October 2005 Developed by the Makoshika Advisory Committee and Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks Rifle Range EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Makoshika State Park is the largest park in the Montana State Parks System, covering over 11,500 acres of badlands in eastern Montana. The park, near Glendive, Montana, was added to the Montana State Parks system in 1953. To the Lakota-Sioux Indians, Ma-ko-shi-ka meant bad earth or bad land. Today, the park’s pine and juniper studded badland formations house the fossil remains of Tyrannosaurus Rex and Triceratops. The park offers diverse amenities for visitors, including roads and hiking trails for park exploration, scenic vistas, campgrounds, a folf course, an amphitheater, a rifle range, and an archery range. A visitor center at the park entrance exhibits the site’s geologic, fossil, and prehistoric stories. The last plan written for Makoshika State Park was completed in 1984. The 2005 Makoshika State Park Management Plan updates previous planning efforts to reflect current issues and opportunities at the park. The plan offers a comprehensive vision and action plan for the park for the next 10 years by identifying issues important to the success of the park and providing actions for addressing them. These actions are scheduled to be implemented during the life of this plan, but may be subject to further research, impacts assessment, costs, available funding, personnel availability, and additional public comment. The proposed implementation timeline is included at the end of this document. In January 2004, a citizen advisory group was formed to analyze issues and develop management recommendations for the park.

On the back cover is The History ofMontana: Exploration and Settlement (1943-44 , oil on canvas), one of the murals in the History of Montana series painted by John W. "Jack" Beauchamp, an artist and the director of the Helena Art Center at Carroll College in the 1940s. Saloon manager Kenny Egan commissioned the artist to paint the murals for the Mint Cigar Store and Tavern located in downtown Helena in 1943· Before the building was demolished in i960, the murals were removed and donated to the Montana Historical Society by the Dennis and Vivian Connors family. Three of the panels are currently on loan to Helena's City County Building, where they hang in the main meeting room. The History ofMontana: Exploration and Settlement depicts people and places central to the state's story, including the Lewis and Clark Expedition and St. Mary's Mission and its founders, Fathers Pierre-] ean De Smet and Anthony Ravalli. The mission and a number of other Montana natural, historic, and recreational sites were proposed as inclusions to the national park system.

  • Spend a Night Under the Stars in Billings – Montana's
    SPEND A NIGHT UNDER THE STARS IN BILLINGS – MONTANA’S TRAILHEAD Where shadows of the towering Rimrocks meet the mystic waters of the Yellowstone River, Billings serves as Montana’s Trailhead for whatever awesome adventures visitors seek under big skies. And once the sun sets, those same clear skies sparkle with the light of billions of stars. Why not spend a night or two under them? Whether you prefer the rugged camping experience or something a little more refined – colloquially known as “glamping” – you’ll find no shortage of areas to set up camp under the canopy of Bill- ings’ brilliant night sky and forge a memorable adventure. YELLOWSTONE RIVER CAMPGROUND The YELLOWSTONE RIVER RV PARK AND CAMPGROUND is a privately owned park that promises a quiet, serene experience for campers, and is just a short drive away from many of Billings’ top attractions, like Pictograph Cave State Park, Pompeys Pillar, ZooMontana and, of course, downtown Billings. In addition to landscaped, shaded RV sites and grassy tent sites, pine log cabins also are available for rental. A natural trail provides access to the majestic Yellowstone River, and the campground is just down the highway from entrances to Yellowstone National Park. Among the other amenities available to campers are a swimming pool, playground and horseshoe pits and, if you feel like pampering yourself a bit, check out the on-site spa and hot tub. THE WORLD’S FIRST KOA Kampgrounds of America (KOA) have been a mainstay in the American camping experience since 1962, and the VERY FIRST KOA SITE is in Billings along the banks of the Yellowstone River.
