Ubet, Montana

It is approximately 3 mi (4.8 km) west of Garneill, which was reputedly the best-known stagecoach station in the Montana Territory.

Ubet was founded in 1880 on the Ft. Benton–Billings stagecoach route by lumberman (and former Wisconsin State Assembly Speaker of the House) A. R. Barrows (who with his family was among the first permanent white settlers of the Judith Basin).

At one time, it included not only a two-story log hotel, but a stagecoach barn, post office, icehouse, saloon, blacksmith shop, and a stable.

[4] At one time, there were less than ten fixed human habitations between Ubet and Billings, making the respite there (including Mrs. Barrows' cooking) particularly treasured.

"[5] As of the 1939 Montana: A State Guide Book by the Federal Writers Project, only one or two log buildings remained, used in the earlier 1930s by sheepherders.
