The M&M is the last of the great “cigar stores” that dotted the Uptown district.The King & Lowry, the M&M, and the Crown were all-day, all-night drinking parlors and gambling houses that catered to the off-shift miner with more money than time. – M&M Cigar Store – Butte America dot com

Our Lady of the Rockies is a colossal 90-foot statue of the Virgin Mary that overlooks the beautiful city of Butte, Montana from her lofty perch on the East Ridge of the Continental Divide. The statue itself was built as a monument to honor not only Mary, but also all women regardless of race, religion, or creed. (This goes doubly so for mothers.) She stands at an elevation of 8,510 feet above sea level, which is also approximately 3,500 feet above the elevation of Butte itself. – City Data dot com – Our Lady of the Rockies – Butte, MT
