Bynum reservoir was built around 1927 before modern machinery using horses and physical man power. A small town was built nearby for the workers which was later moved after the dam was completed to modern day Bynum. All the rocks used for the dam were collected by hand in the surrounding area. Take a look around and you'll see many potholes where rocks were removed.
Near ground zero you will find a campground that is maintained by Montana Fish & Wildlife. The land was graciously donated by the Stott family who owns most of the land surrounding the reservoir.
