Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:
Located at the foot of the Crazy Mountains with an endless expanse of surrounding prairies, Big Timber is a great little town to visit on your way to the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness. It is worth stopping by for the excellent blue ribbon fishing, great hiking, hunting golfing, or just floating in the river.
If you are there in July, you can enjoy the Montana-wide famous historical Big Timber rodeo. To get the feel of the city’s past and present, don’t miss the Crazy Mountain Museum where you can see the Cobblestone City, a finely detailed miniature model of Big Timber as it looked in 1907. You can also see photos and artifacts from the 1930 Cremer Rodeo and a Norwegian Stabbur, a stone house that shows town’s Norwegian heritage, as well as a one-room schoolhouse with desks, photos of the Presidents, and “real" blackboards and chalk.
