Montana Highway 1
Montana State Highway 1 (MT 1) is a state highway located in southwestern Montana, extending west and north from Opportunity to Drummond. Midway between these two points is the Grant-Kohrs Ranch, an historic site. Both the beginning and endpoints of the road are on Interstate 90. It is known as the Pintler Scenic Route and receives a lot of tourist travel every year to visit the historic mining towns of Philipsburg and Granite and to visit the Georgetown Lake and Discovery Ski Basin recreation areas.
This road was formerly designated as U.S. Highway 10 Alternate (US 10 ALT). It received its current number after US 10 was decommissioned through the area in 1986.

Famous quotes containing the word highway:
“The most excellent and divine counsel, the best and most profitable advertisement of all others, but the least practised, is to study and learn how to know ourselves. This is the foundation of wisdom and the highway to whatever is good.... God, Nature, the wise, the world, preach man, exhort him both by word and deed to the study of himself.”
—Pierre Charron (1541–1603)
