FIRES CLAIM A HISTORIC PONY BUILDING
AND A LOCAL RANCHER'S RESIDENCE
(September 2007)

The residence of Tom & Penny Suhr, outside of Pony, burned to the ground on September 1, 2007. 
Luckily, no one was home at the time, and there were no injuries reported.

The Assay Office (brick office) of Pony was totally gutted by fire on September 9, 2007. 
The lone occupant was taken by ambulance to a local hospital for smoke inhalation.

Our sympathies go out to both families for their losses!

Welcome to Pony, Montana!
Official/Registered US Ghost Town

Tucked away in the Tobacco Root mountains of the Montana Rockies is the village of Pony, Montana. Often referred to as "The Last Best Town In The Last Best Place," it rests peacefully in the shadow of 10,000 foot Hollowtop Mountain. Less than one hundred families live in Pony, Montana today, though during the height of the gold rush days the population exceeded 5,000. More Info...
