There are many pieces of art that adorn the Last Chance Gulch area in downtown Helena. While the Bullwhacker statue does not really stand out among the installations in the area, it is a suitable testament to the early settlers of Helena. Ox carts were used to conduct a good deal of commerce with outside cities, especially during the gold rush times and it is nice to see that the role of a bullwhacker is acknowledged. It is aptly noted on the statue that "Driven by noise, the oxen responded to the crack of the whip over their heads and the constant curses of the bullwhacker." There are benches on either side of the status to take photos with the statue in the background.

This statue honors the contribution made by hard working laborer’s who built this city. Without the contribution made by teamsters and other common men and women, Helena would never have survived after the gold ran out.
