Butte Montana
was built on minerals, most notably gold, silver, and copper.
Historic theatres, which were built in the heyday of the copper barons,
would rival those in New York City. Now, only one survives, called The
Mother Lode. It has been restored to its former beauty and continues to
feature top entertainers.
Taking a trolley tour of the area is probably the best way to tour
Butte, the tour lasts about two hours and you will hear about the
history of the area from a local who knows of what he speaks. You will
see some fine examples of great architecture and the scenery in Montana
is always fantastic. |
