Home of America's Tallest Flagpole

http://www.buttevalleychamber.com/

Butte Valley teams with American and community pride. In June 2, 1996, this small but energetic community, raised a 30 x 60 ft American flag to fly atop a 200 ft - tall flagpole. Located next to Dorris City Hall, America's tallest flagpole garners immense interest from travelers and residents alike. A community flag raising and barbecue is held annually on the Fourth of July to honor all Veterans and active military who fight to preserve the freedom we all enjoy.
Our flag once flew a tour of duty on one of the big Navy ships but I can't remember exactly which one it was. I should know this. I was the chamber secretary for 2 years.
Hwy 97 has been designated as the Volcanic Legacy Scenic Byway.
