As with the many other cities in Montana, Whitefish established and prospered because of the Great Northern Railway, which was built through it in 1904. In the early days, Whitefish was a logging town. Then in the late 1940s the Big Mountain ski resort was built, helping to usher in the tourism industry to the city.

About this website



Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
