Default Two Dot

Two Dot takes its name from a local cattleman H. J. 'Two Dot' Wilson. Mr. Wilson was given the nickname of 'Two Dot' because of his unusual cattle brand of a large dot on the shoulder and another on the thigh, a clever brand to deter cow thieves. Twodot is located in central Montana, on US Highway 12 between Harlowton and White Sulphur Springs.

I bet right now the wood stove is working hard. I thought two dot was my secret place! You know its gottin crowed if two dot becomes a tourist stop.

Yup, me and the Mrs. stop in on occasion when we make the loop from Great Falls, to White Sulphur Springs to Harlowton back north through Hobson and then to Great Falls again....

There are plenty of secret little places in Montana that time will never find and that progress will never be interested in....

I don't think that Two Dot will become a tourist stop anytime soon.

The Jawbone Railroad came in the fall of 1899 and the Town of Big Elk, a few miles to the south, was moved to the rail head and became Two Dot in 1900.

Big Elk?
Two Dot?
The Jawbone Railroad?

I'll bet my bottom buckaroo that folks visiting these Montana threads just think we're nuts....

Oh, and before I forget.....

In case anyone could ever be interested in this....

Ekalaka is known for having a very high density of nesting raptors.

Did you see where the old schoolhouse in Two Dot is for sale? If it had more acreage, I'd be interested myself. Looks like it's in great shape.

Actually, no I haven't.... but I'll be heading over to Harlowton in about 3 weeks to meet with the boys up at the chamber of commerce and I'll have to stop by TwoDot to take a little looksie.....

Land or not, it might be worth really looking into.

Price wasn't bad either, as these things go right now. Think of it as a big house with one acre of land. As I recall, they want to sell it to fund some other community project.
