Butte: where outdoor adventure and history unite
Butte is an outdoors-focused town surrounded by mountain ranges that show off the seasons. “The Highlands are your big snow-capped peaks,” says Valerie Nielson, a Realtor with Century 21 Shea Realty who lives in Butte. “And during the fall on the East Ridge [of the Continental Divide], you get different variations of colors on the trees.” Hiking, hunting and fishing are popular pastimes in the city, and opportunities for outdoor adventure are often a short drive away. The city also has a rich blue-collar history. Butte’s copper mine, the Berkeley Pit, has been called the ‘Richest Hill on Earth’ and helped fuel westward expansion in the 19th century. Today, it’s a historic site on the city's northwest side. Plus, Butte’s active mine, The Continental Pit, is a major employer.

Opportunities for hunting, fishing and hiking in Silver Bow County
Spending time in the outdoors is a way of life in Butte, regardless of season or the distance. “Camping isn’t far from here,” says Nielson. “You could drive 20 minutes outside of town or an hour outside of town.” 10 miles south, Thompson Park offers skiing and snowshoeing; 40 miles south, The Big Hole River is a renowned trout fishing destination. “You’re always going to have access to something nearby,” says Nielson. The land around Butte is full of opportunities to hunt, hike and camp. The Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest surrounds Butte and access is about 7 miles away. It's a hunting ground for elk, deer and bighorn sheep. Held on the nearby Continental Divide Mountain Range, the Butte 100 mountain bike race every July draws over 350 racers to the city.

Uptown offers local shopping and chain restaurants
Butte is home to a variety of local businesses, mostly located in historic Uptown. “It’s an incredible experience to go Uptown and shop there at the locally owned stores and see the architecture,” says Nielson. In recent years, national restaurant chains and retailers have opened. “[And] we’re getting the places we’ve always gone out of town for,” says Nielson.
