Havre, a rural agricultural city, is situated close
to the Canadian border amidst the wide panorama of the
north central plains. Also a railroad town, it offers
modern city conveniences in a remote setting, surrounded
by unaltered and uncluttered plains. Fort Assiniboine,
a late 19th century army installation, complete with
preserved buildings, lies six miles southwest near the
Milk River. In the Bear's Paw Mountains to the south
is Beaver Creek Park. This 10,000-acre park, one of
the largest county parks in the United States, features
rolling grasslands, wooded groves, rocky cliffs and
rushing streams. The Rocky Boy's and Fort Belknap Indian
reservations are nearby.
