Ennis is a town in Madison County, Montana, United States, in the southwestern part of the state. The population was 917 at the 2020 census,[5] up from 838 in 2010.

U.S. Route 287 runs through town, following the Madison River as it descends from the town of West Yellowstone.

History

Madison River at Ennis in January

In 1863, gold was discovered in Alder Gulch. This brought on "the rush". Two months later, William Ennis homesteaded the site along the Madison River that was soon to become the town of Ennis, his namesake.[6]

In 1886, a mystery creature was noted for making livestock kills in the Madison Valley. A local rancher, Israel Ammon Hutchins, finally shot and killed the beast, after accidentally shooting one of his cattle, which was on the other side of some brush. A local taxidermist stuffed the canine. Jack Kirby (Hutchins' grandson) tracked the mount to a museum in Pocatello, Idaho, circa 2007.[7][8][9][10]

Avid Aircraft, a manufacturer of homebuilt aircraft, was located in Ennis. The company ceased operations in 2003.

The 2003 Ennis shooting took place on June 14 of that year, when 44-year-old George Harold Davis opened fire outside the Silver Dollar Saloon bar on Main Street. He killed one man and injured six others. He then fled to Missoula County, where he was finally stopped and arrested by police. He was sentenced to eleven life terms for the crime.[11]

The Thexton Ranch is located approximately 7 miles (11 km) south of Ennis, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Geography

The town is flanked by Tobacco Root Mountains to the northwest, the Gravelly Range to the southwest and the Madison Range to the east. Approximately 12 miles (19 km) north of town, the Madison Dam creates Ennis Lake at the head of Bear Trap Canyon.

A large "E" has been placed in a hill west of the town at this location: 45°21′02″N 111°44′52″W / 45.3505°N 111.7478°W / 45.3505; -111.7478 (Ennis)

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 0.74 square miles (1.92 km2), of which 0.001 square miles (0.00 km2), or 0.14%, are water.[2] The Madison River, one of the three headwater tributaries of the Missouri River, runs along the eastern border of the town.

Climate

According to the Köppen Climate Classification system, Ennis has a warm-summer humid continental climate, abbreviated Dfb"" on climate maps.
