Froggie's Stopping Place on the Whoop-Up Trail, also known as Lucille and as Midway Station, is a site on the National Register of Historic Places located in Conrad, Montana. It has been used as a hotel and Post Office. It was added to the Register on April 15, 1993. [2]

Historically it consisted of a house, a post office (which possibly was incorporated into the house), a school, a barn or barns, and a windmill. In 1991 it consisted of three cobble foundations, some scattered depression features, and an area of pasture land in which a portion of the historic Whoop-Up Trail was still faintly visible. [3]

The Rocky Springs Segment of the Whoop-Up Trail was the location of campsites for travellers along the Whoop-Up Trail between Fort Benton, Montana and Fort Hamilton, Alberta in the 19th century. In 1991, it was the best-preserved segment of the Whoop-Up Trail within Montana and it included rut tracks still visible and the surrounding landscape was mostly natural. The numerous small springs in the area were mostly dried up by 1991 "due to modern cultivation and resultant ground water changes". It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.
