Mission Valley Montana Museums
A Road Trip to Remember
Mission Valley Montana Museums is a group of museums on the Flathead Indian Reservation . It is home to three Indian tribes, the Bitterroot Salish, Upper Pend d’Oreille, and the Kootenai. The territories of these three tribes covered all of western Montana. They also extended into parts of Idaho, British Columbia and Wyoming. The Hellgate Treaty of 1855 established the Flathead Reservation. Over half a million acres passed out of Tribal ownership during land allotment and homesteading that began in 1904.
