Virginia City

This live stream looks over Virginia City, a preserved 19th-century gold rush town in southwestern Montana. It is a practical way to check how the town looks right now and what conditions are like before a visit.

About the town

Virginia City grew after gold was found in the Alder Gulch in 1863 and was for a time the territorial capital of Montana. Much of its boardwalk-lined main street still has wooden storefronts, saloons and old false-front buildings, and the town is run as a living history site. It sits at about 1,845 metres in the Madison Range foothills, where the landscape is open grassland, pine and sagebrush under big skies.

What the camera shows

Since the stream is a live video feed, the view can change with the weather, the seasons and the hour. Depending on the angle, you may see the historic street, passing traffic or visitors, and the surrounding hills. Mornings and late afternoons often bring the warmest light on the old buildings, and winter snow can make the town especially photogenic when it lies on the rooftops.

Climate and getting there

Summers are warm and dry with cool nights, while winters are long and cold with regular snow. Late June through September is the most popular time to visit, when the town hosts its events and the roads are clear. Nearby Big Sky is about 44 kilometres away, and the Lone Peak Tram and Black Butte cameras on this site show conditions at those mountain destinations.
