Deer Lodge
Deer Lodge is the seat of Powell County, Montana, a ranching town on Interstate 90 in the upper Clark Fork valley, home to the Old Montana Prison museum complex and next door to the Grant-Kohrs Ranch National Historic Site, a preserved working cattle ranch run by the National Park Service. It carries a deep ranching tradition and a heritage-tourism draw, and it sits in Powell County, distinct from the Anaconda-Deer Lodge County to the south. Media & Technology Group builds bespoke business platforms (custom software, AI automation, managed IT, and marketing) for Deer Lodge's ranch, heritage-tourism, healthcare, and local businesses, and we serve them remote-first from York County, Pennsylvania. Distance is no barrier, and we add on-site time when a project warrants the trip.
