Broadwater County Museum 2025 Season

Tue, 05/13/2025 - 4:37pm by vsample

The Broadwater County Museum and Historical Society is busy getting ready for the 2025 season. The museum will open on Thursday, May 15, 2025, at 1:00 p.m.

In August of 1877, George Cowan of Radersburg, and party, including his wife and several others went on an adventure to Yellowstone Park. They camped there for several days and on the morning of August 24 prepared to be on the road home. During this preparation, they were approached by a group of Nez Perce Indians. More and more Indians came until the party hitched up their teams, got into the wagons and started for home.
