Ekalaka is the most remote county seat in Montana — the Medicine Rocks State Park, the remarkable Carter County Museum (with a T. rex), and Medicine Lake are extraordinary.

Highlights

Expect livestock judging, 4-H competitions, rodeo events, and the frontier community spirit of one of the most isolated communities in the contiguous United States.
