Trail Overview

This 8-mile track loops off of the Skyline Mine Trail on Radersburg Pass Road and circles back via Tramway Road. You climb to an elevation of 7600 feet in Deerlodge National Forest. There is some downed timber in this forest, and at times, you may have to move a fallen tree to get by. Carrying a saw, a snatch block, as well as a tow rope, and other recovery equipment is a good idea. The scenery is beautiful. The views are amazing. This forest is home to deer, elk, and bears. If you are here in the early springtime, you may encounter snow and/or mud. After heavy rain, it will be muddy. Plan ahead by bringing extra fuel and plenty of water and snacks.
