Flathead Back Country Horseman Info Sheet

   

August 16 &17  Elk Lake (Middle Fork)

bulletAccess:  Take Hwy #2 to mile marker 190(5 miles past Nimrod river access).  Watch for Devil Creek sign on your right.  Turn right here and then make an immediate left.  The trailhead is at the end of this short road.
bullet Facilities:  BCH feed bunks, hitch racks, water from creek and room to park several horse trailers.
bullet Trails: #167 & #602: Go 5miles on #167 and then 1Mile on #602 to Elk Lake. The trails are good with the Devils hump portion moderately strenuous (acceptable for an out of shape horse if you let him rest)
bullet Description: We will work with members of the Bob Marshal Foundation to install a high line to reduce horse traffic near the lake and assisting them in some on site rehabilitation.   The ride to Elk Lake is quite scenic and the lake itself has some large cutthroat. Project leader will decide time and the option of having a one or 2-day project.
bullet Please Note: Other people have caught big fish in this lake.
