We had a wonderful 5-6 miles walk through the woods and field, lunching at an overlook over Missoula. The drive to the Sawmill Gulch Trailhead was very easy.

Temporarily relocated to Lolo, MT at the north end of the Bitterroot Valley from the Phoenix area to escape the heat experienced in the Valley of the Sun during the summer. I can say this has to be one of the most beautiful valleys I have ever been in during my 73 years in existence. The Bitterroot River - the one Lewis and Clark followed - runs the length of the valley with the Bitterroot mountains to the West and the Sapphire mountains to the East (both part of the Rocky Mountains - no, they are not just in Colorado!). Hiking, walking, fishing, tubing, camping - it's all here for you to enjoy without the crowds. Highly recommend and going forward I plan to return year after year. If you are interested in tourist traps, you will be disappointed. If you get pleasure of seeing Bison grazing, you will be on cloud 9.

With tens of thousands of acres and dozens of trails this is a hikers paradise. Located east of Kalispell, and past the Hungry Horse Dam, access in the winter becomes considerably more restricted. The use of a four wheel drive made this trip possible. We drove in about 8 miles or so on the west side of the dam to Jimmy Trail. The trail is fairly strenuous and the calf deep snow added to that. The trail ascends steeply in numerous places with almost no flat or plateau areas. The views through the trees are breathtaking and it was well worth the effort. This is a remote area and precautions are necessary. Bring supplies and at least bear spray, as bears, mountain lions and bobcats are present. Our hike was about three miles out and back. This time of year there is almost no vehicular or pedestrian traffic, though snow mobiles could be heard in the distance. On a sadder note the beetles have done an enormous amount of damage to the trees. So much more to do.

The Ptarmigan Trailhead is located adjacent to the Swiftcurrent Motor inn and is approximately 11 miles in length roundtrip. The elevation gain is about 2,300' and as you approach the lake the vistas become more and more amazing. Three switchbacks ascend from the Lake to the tunnel and the view as you emerge from the tunnel is fantastic.
