Big Blue View

This trail is well maintained from the west side due to a communication site at the top of Blue Mountain. Once reaching the top of the mountain, there is a lookout tower allowing 360-degree views, and on clear days one can see Glacier National Park. It is mostly gravel when approaching from the west and turns into a two-track when coming off the top of Blue Mountain in the direction of the Koocanusa Reservoir. Once entering the two tracks, the road has small rocks, a few tight switchbacks, and great views. There are small water erosion ruts that can channel water in heavy rain or snow runoff.
