DescriptionNamed for the ubiquitous shrub found throughout the Northern Plains, this creek flows out of the Sweet Grass Hills. Reports of a Sage Creek near present-day Gilford appear in fur trappers’ journals in the 1850s. Dayton was the first settlement along the banks of Sage Creek, established in the 1890s.Contributing InstitutionMontana Historical Society Library and ArchivesGeolocation[1] CountyLiberty CountyHill County
