Valley County, Montana
Valley County sprawls across a vast expanse of prairies and badlands up in northeastern Montana. Glasgow, the biggest town, sits along the Milk River. This is where fossil hunters come from all over to dig here.
Winters are brutal, with icy winds sweeping down from Canada. But summers? They’re perfect. The Fort Peck Dam created a massive lake that draws boaters and anglers.
You’ll find some of the friendliest folks around in these parts. Agriculture is the backbone of the economy. Despite the harsh climate, there’s a raw beauty to Valley County that gets under your skin.
