Beaverhead County, Administrative division in southwestern Montana, United States.
The region spans 5,572 square miles of mountainous terrain, making it the largest county in Montana with elevations exceeding one mile above sea level.
Founded in 1865, the county originally established its seat in the gold mining settlement of Bannack before relocating administration to Dillon in 1881.
The Beaverhead County Fair and Dillon Jaycee's Rodeo maintain the region's ranching traditions while celebrating the local agricultural heritage.
The county notification system provides residents with emergency alerts, while the Resource Assistance Center offers employment support and health referrals on Wednesdays.
The Continental Divide forms most of the county's border with Idaho, encompassing the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest and Red Rocks Lakes Wildlife Refuge.
