Valley County, Administrative division in Montana, United States
Valley County is an administrative division in northeastern Montana with Glasgow as its main town and seat of government. The region covers expansive land with agricultural areas and several smaller communities spread throughout.
The county was established in 1893 when it separated from Dawson County during territorial reorganization. Its boundaries were shaped to align with natural geography and the international border with Canada.
The Pioneer Museum in Glasgow preserves local artifacts and documents that represent the development of Valley County through generations.
The region is sparsely populated, so visitors should plan ahead and stock up on supplies in Glasgow before traveling further out. Local roads connect the communities, but expect longer travel times between settlements.
The Fort Peck Indian Reservation extends partially into the county, linking the area to the history and present-day presence of Native Americans. This connection shapes the region's identity in subtle ways that visitors can observe throughout their travels.
