Visit and experience the nature and solitude of Council Grove State Park and reflect on the park's history.
In 1855, on this site, Isaac Stevens negotiated the Hellgate Treaty between the U. S. government and the Salish, Kootenai, and Pend d'Oreille Indians to create the Flathead Reservation. The treaty was signed here on July 16, 1855.

This site is composed of 187 acres at an elevation of 3,198 feet.
