EKALAKA
Ekalaka is named for Ijkalaka, the Oglala Sioux niece of Chief Red Cloud and the bride of David Russell, who settled here in the mid-1800s. Though small, the community continues to thrive on Montana’s Eastern prairies. Visit Carter County Museum, Montana’s first county museum; Camp Needmore, a refurbished CCC Camp; and Medicine Rocks State Park, an International Dark-Sky Sanctuary, nearby.
