Sweetgrass 8 Miles is directly at the US - Canadian Border

Sweetgrass is a port of entry very near the Canadian border. In 1890 a narrow-gauge railroad called the Turkey Track was built across the border between Great Falls and Lethbridge, and in 1900 Sweetgrass became a booming trade center as the dry land farmers arrived. The name comes from the abundance of "sweet" grass that grows around here. The town gave its name to the Sweetgrass Arch, a series of oil fields that extends south to Sunburst. (from Cheney's Names on the Face of Montana, Mountain Press Publishing Company)

Port of Sweetgrass

The Sweetgrass/Coutts Port of Entry is open 24 hours/7 days a week.  The north I15 terminus is the Port of Sweetgrass.  Post 9-11, this sleepy, little border crossing was transformed into a U.S. fortress.  The United States and Canada share an impressive building, and they have the best technology available.  Advanced criminal justice information is at U.S. Custom’s fingertips, to ensure only authorized travelers cross the border. Trade regulations of each country are enforced.
