A Relaxing Morning Along Western Montana's Cedar Creek
We are both getting in shape this spring and decided to spend Saturday morning with a bike ride along Western Montana's Cedar Creek. Cedar Creek is located near the town of Superior Montana in Mineral County. It's only about 45 minutes from Missoula, Montana.
If you're looking for open space, Mineral County is a great place to live because 87% of the County is Publicly Owned - mostly by the U.S. Forest Service!
So Relax, and enjoy the soothing sounds of Cedar Creek!

cedar creek: Colorful History - Superior, Montana & Cedar Creek - 09/15/07 02:01 PM
Superior has a colorful Wild West history with a Gold Rush and Boomtowns that sprang up around the area. We have a local museum and historical society that was able to provide me with some great information on the history of the area.
Cedar Creek Gold Rush
The discovery of gold and the ensuing stampede into Mineral County's Cedar Creek gulch took place more than 100 years ago. Time has dimmed much of the story, but it is known that Cedar had all the elements of greed, violence and rowdiness found in gold mining camps.
