MT-072 Chief Mountain and Old North Trail

Marker text: CHIEF MOUNTAIN AND OLD NORTH TRAIL

Chief Mountain, NINA-STA-QUAY, has always been known to the Blackfeet people. Identified on maps as King Mountain as early as 1796, this outstanding landmark has long been revered for its supernatural powers. Generations of Blackfeet have used Chief Mountain for fasting and prayer. In 1992, the Blackfeet Tribe, by Tribal Resolution, limited public access into the area.
