Western larch trees in autumn light over Seeley Lake

Est. 1995 · Seeley Lake, Montana

A century of stories
from the Seeley Lake area.

Smokejumpers, sourdoughs, larch balls, and lake-bound prospectors. Every name in this valley has a story — and we keep them.

Call Wes. Tell him a story.

Our partner project, Seeley Swan Stories, runs a phone-based oral-history line. Pick up the phone, call Wes, and your conversation becomes a written story in the valley's archive — public, private, or family-only, your choice.
