About this place

Although this trailhead requires some patience in order to get to it due to narrow and bumpy roads, the pay off is well worth it. Approximately 2 hours southwest of Lolo, MT or 2 hours and 45 minutes east of Kooskia, ID this moderately strenuous 12 mile hike along the stunnning Colt Killed Creek, adjacent to the Selway Bitterroot Wilderness, offers ups and downs, mountain views, river fishing and the sound of rushing water through steep canyons. Backpackers, day hikers and horseriders alike will be delighted with the bountiful views and serene environment. There is very little parking available at the trailhead so if you have a large group please consider carpooling.
