Sluice Boxes State Park, State park in Cascade County, Montana.
Belt Creek flows through a limestone canyon within the Little Belt Mountains, creating steep cliffs and natural ledges across 1,454 acres of land.
The park contains remains from the 1890s Montana Central Railroad and Barker Mines, which connected silver mines to smelters in Great Falls.
Since 1889, the area evolved from an industrial mining zone into a recreational destination where visitors explore historical structures and natural formations.
Visitors need to obtain a Backcountry Campsite Permit from Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks headquarters before setting up camp in designated areas.
The railroad operated special fishing trains on Sundays during the 1920s after Belt Creek received blue ribbon trout stream designation.
