McKinley, Montana

David in Great Falls

You probably haven’t heard of the town known as McKinley, because it technically doesn’t exist. Except, that is, in your mind. McKinley is the name of a fictional town along the Rocky Mountain Front; a town that is being developed, created, documented, and considered by you. Yes, YOU. It is an open-source history of a town that doesn’t exist. That means that it is wide-open for whatever you want to place in it. Hunters, shopkeeps, ranchers, kids, teachers, media, builders – whatever McKinley has, it’s because you put it there. Events from McKinley’s past can be created, documented, and shared. For inspiration, you might want to check out A History of Montana by Kodak, or Ghost Cowboy, or lots of other Montana history sites. Anyone can contribute, and all are welcome.

David, I eMailed the link you provided for McKinley, Montana to about 18 Montanans, and one of the people replied, “I read two of them (the stories) and it sounds pretty good … I might have to think about this one a bit. My family is old time Montana people so I”m sure I could just use some of their history and build a story on it somehow. How fun!!!!! Thanks for sharing the site!!!!!!!”
