Russell Country

Named for famed Western artist Charlie Russell, this is region of rivers and mountains. In the late 1800s, Charlie Russell first worked as a cowboy and a ranch hand. He embraced a rough and tumble life while also developing his artistic talent. Drawing and painting, he captured the life of the Plains Indians and the struggles of the region's early explorers. Now considered one of the foremost Western artists, Russell left a rich historic legacy, preserving the region's people carving their lives on the landscape.

The countryside that inspired Russell's paining endures in the region's scenic byways. Try camping, hunting, hiking or fishing and find what inspiration strikes you.
