Montana v. United States 450 U.S. 544 (1981) was a Supreme Court case that addressed the Crow Nation’s ability to regulate hunting and fishing on tribal lands by a non-tribal member. The case considered several important issues concerning tribes’ treaty rights and sovereign governing authority on Indian reservations. The original dispute was over access to fishing on the Bighorn River within the exterior boundaries of the Crow Indian Reservation in Montana.
