If you love history, THIS is the place for you to check out! It started as a way to make humanities fun, interesting, and more accessible to us, the public. The project uses a variety of ways to show how history has shaped the world we live in currently and how we treat one another.

This non-profit organization has made history come to life in downtown Bozeman. Have you ever wondered if the building you are walking by was once haunted, or maybe a murder happened there? The Extreme History Project will walk you through different historic events that happened right under our feet, and we had no clue!

Vintage Photos Of Montana

It's hard to imagine what Yellowstone National Park would look like in black and white. We are so used to seeing the colors that make it one of America's favorite travel destinations. Jezel Doughert's grandmother passed away and like many of us do, she spent hours going through years and years of history, from old yearbooks to news clippings, to pictures. Jezel sent me a piece of history that, if not for her, I wouldn't be able to share with you.
