Rock City Rd
VALIER 59486

County: Pondera
Region: Region 5 – CENTRAL MONTANA
Location ID: 635


Description:
It may be called a city, but the only thing you'll find it populated with are bulbous rock formations. A local undeveloped secret, sandstone formations or hoodoos, provide beautiful views and hours of uninterrupted exploration. One point overlooks the point where Birch Creek merges with the Two Medicine River. Hiking along the river bed almost guarantees that you will discover fossils and petrified wood. The natural prairie grass also houses some original teepee rings. With a somewhat eerie and other-worldly feel, it is not hard to imagine that you are no longer on Earth while walking amongst the rising stone towers. In fact, Rock City was scouted and seriously considered as a location for the movie Starship Troopers and Galaxy Quest.
