The road to the summit, located within the Helena National Forest, is gravel, rocky, tippy and bumpy at times. The road is rough towards the end and high-clearance vehicles are recommended. The road is usually impassable from October to June (weather permitting). Expect a trail pretty steep. The summit offers majestic panoramic views of the Scapegoat Wilderness, Big Belt Mountains and Scratchgravel Hills from atop Montana’s Continental Divide. At the summit there’s a lookout tower built in 1962.
