Access Issue: Many of the logging road have been "returned to nature" Details

Usually you can find parking on the road and walk the old logging roads to the crags.

Description

Mixed Shade, Nice forest, not too thick

Getting There

From Missoula: Drive South on 93 to lolo. At the last light leaving town take a right which will put you on Highway 12. Drive roughly 25 miles to Lolo Hot Springs.

If you are going to the Heap take the first left after the springs. You will cross a little bridge and then you will want to take the next left into a parking lot. Hike up the road from the Gate.

For most of the other rocks you will want to take the first right after the hotsprings on fish creek road. Keep driving and you will see more. Look at routes for specifics
