West Fork Petty Creek Rd 22

Trail Overview

If you're looking for access to deep sections of Lolo National Forest near Alberton, this is a great place to start. The road is well-maintained gravel and dirt during summer, but the snow doesn't usually melt until late spring. Make sure to keep your speed low for the first 4 miles to keep from kicking up too much dust in the residential portion before climbing up to the ridgeline. There are a couple of rocky sections, but their bark is worse than their bite (they look worse than they are); most vehicles shouldn't have any trouble with this road, even without 4WD. The road ends at a gate but continues for those looking for a smoother walk after the initial ascent.
