"Our Lady of the Rockies", a 90-foot
statue sitting atop the Continental
Divide is the result of a dream and six
years of hard work.
With the help of generous donations
and a wealth of love and faith, countless
volunteers completed a seemingly
impossible task. On December 20,
1985 "Our Lady" was placed on the
East Ridge to overlook Butte, Montana.
The base sits at an elevation of 8510
feet above sea level and 3500 feet
above the mile high city of Butte. The
statue, lighted and visible at night, is a
spectacular sight to behold.
