CUTBANK

Cutbank is a primitive, densely wooded valley with a singing mountain

stream. Six miles above the Blackfeet Highway are a quiet chalet,

a ranger station, and a small grove for auto campers. A spur lane,

leaving the highway at Cutbank Bridge, 4 miles north of the Browning

Wye, brings the autoist to this terminus. A more popular means of

approach is on horseback, over Cutbank Pass from Two Medicine or over

Triple Divide Pass from Red Eagle. Cutbank is a favorite site for

stream fishermen. At the head of the valley above Triple Divide Pass is

the Triple Divide Peak (8,001 feet) which parts its waters between the

three oceans surrounding North America, i. e., its drainage is through

the Missouri-Mississippi system to the Gulf of Mexico (Atlantic),

through the Saskatchewan system to Hudson Bay (Arctic), and through the

Columbia system to the Pacific.
