Montanaâs Medicine Rocks State Park has been recognized as Americaâs newest International Dark Sky Sanctuary. Nicole Clausing – January 11, 2021 | Updated March 24, 2021
We know Montana is big sky country. And if youâve ever been under that vaulted sky at night, you know how good it is for stargazing. Now Medicine Rocks State Park, in the southeast corner of the state, has gotten official recognition for its clear, dark nights. The International Dark-Sky Association has named the park an official International Dark Sky Sanctuary, one of only seven in the United States.
The association has five levels of recognition, ranging from Urban Night Sky Places, which are densely populated areas that have taken steps to mitigate light pollution, to International Dark Sky Sanctuaries like Medicine Rocks. This category is reserved for the most remote and profoundly dark places in the world.
