HUNTLEY

Huntley was named for S.S. Huntley, a pioneer stockman, and is short for Huntley Irrigation Project, which was the second of the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation’s innovative irrigation project at the turn of the 20th century. Huntley Project is a valley of lush crops and comprises four small, planned communities: Huntley, Worden, Ballantine and Pompeys Pillar. The Huntley Project Museum of Irrigated Agriculture features a collection of more than 5,000 artifacts related to irrigated agriculture on Montana’s prairie.
