Havre
Havre is the county seat of Hill County. It is located in North-Central Montana. It was incorporated in 1893.Its population is just under 10,000, making it the largest city on the Hi-Line[?] and the eighth largest city in Montana. Highway 87 and Highway 2 both run through Havre. The main sources of employment are Northern Montana Hospital, Montana State University Northern, and Burlington Northern. The Milk River (tributary of the Missouri River) runs through the town, and the Bear Paw mountains can be seen to the South.
Walking around the streets of Havre you may see a few small grids of purple colored squares on the sidewalk. These are from a sort of underground "mall" built in Havre at least one-hundred years ago. (They let in sunlight.) Throughout its history, it has contained a brothel, a Chinese laundramat, a saloon, a drug store, at least three opium dens, and rooms used for smuggling alcohol during prohibition.
Also near Havre is the Bear Paw Battlefield, where the Nez Perce were attacked by the US Calvalry. Chief Joseph eventually surrendured to the Calvalry.
At the bluffs behind the Holiday Villiage mall in Havre, is the Wahkpa Chu'gn buffalo jump, which is over 2,000 years old, and is one of the largest and best preserved buffalo jumps anywhere.
The Havre High School's mascot is the Blue Ponies.
