The Piegan - Carway Border Crossing connects the town of Babb, Montana with Cardston, Alberta. The small village of Carway, Alberta has all but vanished, with the Carway School closing in 1954.[1] The US replaced its old log cabin-style border station with the current facility in 2003. Canada Border Services Agency continues to operate out of the brick border station shown at the right, which was built in 1954.
