The Anaconda Range, informally known as the "Pintlers", is a group of high mountains located in southwestern Montana, in the northwestern United States.
The mountain range takes its name from the nearby town of Anaconda, founded by Marcus Daly in 1883.
[1] It runs northeast approximately 50 miles (80 km) from Lost Trail Pass to a point near the community of Anaconda, covering parts of Ravalli, Deer Lodge, Granite and Beaverhead Counties.
The crest of the range is part of the Continental Divide, rising to 10,793 feet (3,290 m) at West Goat Peak.
West Pintler Peak, located in a more commonly visited area, rises to 9,894 feet (3,016 m).
