Notes
^ The latitude and longitude information provided in this table was derived originally from the National Register Information System, which has been found to be fairly accurate for about 99% of listings. Some locations in this table may have been corrected to current GPS standards.
^ These counts are based on entries in the National Register Information Database as of March 13, 2009 and new weekly listings posted since then on the National Register of Historic Places web site. There are frequent additions to the listings and occasional delistings and the counts here are approximate and not official. New entries are added to the official Register on a weekly basis. Also, the counts in this table exclude boundary increase and decrease listings which only modify the area covered by an existing property or district, although carrying a separate National Register reference number.
^ Going-to-the-Sun Road and Great Northern Railway Buildings are listed in both Flathead and Glacier counties, the Lewis and Clark Bridge spans the Missouri River between McCone and Roosevelt counties, the Butte, Anaconda and Pacific Railway Historic District and the Butte-Anaconda Historic District are split between Deer Lodge and Silver Bow counties, Fort Union Trading Post National Historic Site is listed in both Richland and Roosevelt counties (as well as McKenzie and Williams counties, North Dakota), Froggie's Stopping Place on the Whoop-Up Trail is listed in both Chouteau and Pondera counties, the Fred Robinson Bridge spans the Missouri River between Fergus and Phillips counties, the Judith Landing Historic District is listed in both Chouteau and Fergus counties, and the Red Lodge-Cooke City Approach Road Historic District is listed in both Carbon and Park counties. The Homestake Airway Beacon is in both Jefferson and Silver Bow counties.
