Big Timber, County seat in Sweet Grass County, Montana, United States.
Located at an elevation of 1,247 meters, Big Timber extends across 0.95 square miles of land surrounded by flowing creeks and mountain ranges.
Big Timber emerged as a major wool-shipping depot along the Northern Pacific Railroad, later surviving a devastating fire in 1908 that destroyed numerous buildings.
The Crazy Mountain Museum preserves local heritage through indoor exhibitions and outdoor replicas, including a Swedish homestead cabin and Lewis and Clark garden.
Interstate 90 and U.S. Route 191 connect Big Timber to major transportation networks, while the local airport provides additional access three miles southwest.
The city experiences extreme temperature variations due to chinook winds, with winter records reaching minus 47 degrees Fahrenheit in February 1936.
