Welcome to Divide, Montana

Divide gets its name because it is near the Continental Divide, where waters on the west side end up in the Pacific and streams from the east slop wind toward the Gulf. This station on the Union Pacific served as a distribution and stock shipping point for the Big Hole Valley. (from Cheney’s Names on the Face of Montana, Mountain Press Publishing Company)

The Big Hole River Recreation Area extends approximately 35 miles upstream and 38 miles downstream from Divide, Montana. The Big Hole River, a blue ribbon trout stream, provides excellent fishing and floating opportunities with a number of access points being available from State Highway 43 and Interstate Highway 15. Overnight camping and boat launch facilities are provided at BLM-managed sites at Divide Bridge, Dickie Bridge, and East Bank, all located between Divide and Wisdom, Montana. Day use facilities and a boat launch are available at the Jerry Creek access site.
