Miscellaneous
The hike to St. Mary’s Peak, outside of Stevensville, is guaranteed to provide stunning views and plenty of alpine scenery. You’ll begin by climbing steadily through fir and lodgepole pine forest, before following a broad ridge for about a mile. As you climb toward the summit, you’ll pass through windswept alpine terrain that offers tremendous views into the Selway Bitterroot Wilderness. At the top, you’ll be greeted by a lookout tower, and perhaps a volunteer fire lookout during peak fire season - be sure to say thank you before heading back down! Photo by Elizabeth Wehling
