Helena Capital of Montana Word Search Puzzle

Helena is the state capital of the U.S. state of Montana and the county seat of Lewis and Clark County. Helena was founded as a gold camp during the Montana gold rush, and established in 1864. The discovery of gold by a prospecting party known as the "Four Georgians" in a gulch off the Prickly Pear Creek led to the founding of a mining camp along a small creek in the area they called Last Chance Gulch, making it one of the wealthiest cities in the United States by the late 19th century. The concentration of wealth contributed to the city's prominent, elaborate Victorian architecture. Helena’s official symbol is a drawing of "The Guardian of the Gulch", a wooden fire watch tower built in 1886. Discover more facts about Helena's wealthy city in this word search hunt!
