Anaconda

Pocket-sized city in southwestern Montana at the foot of the Anaconda Range, with a photogenic historic core, a handful of cafés and restaurants, and more churches than its size might suggest. The Continental Divide runs close to the south, and the mountains are within easy reach, making it a practical base for exploring the surrounding high country.
