ABOUT MYSTIC AND PPL MONTANA

Framed by the rugged snow capped peaks of the Beartooth Mountains and the Custer National Forest, PPL Montana's Mystic Hydroelectric Project is surrounded by a breathtaking wilderness landscape that supports diverse aquatic, fisheries and wildlife resources, native habitats and unique geological features. Anglers, hikers and other outdoor enthusiasts seek this setting from late spring to early fall.

Built in 1925, the 12.5 nameplate megawatt Mystic facility is on the West Rosebud Creek in the Beartooths, 75 miles southwest of Billings, Montana. It’s one of 11 hydroelectric dams and one storage reservoir operated by PPL Montana, whose 500 employees work to produce safe, reliable energy to light homes and businesses across Montana.

Like Mystic Dam, many of PPL Montana's power plants operate in some of the most beautiful areas of our state. The company takes that responsibility seriously and has committed over $25 million over the next decade for recreation, fisheries, water quality, wildlife, habitat and cultural resource enhancements on the Montana river systems we use to generate electric power.

Like all Montanans, we at PPL Montana want to preserve the health of these natural resources for generations to come.
