I am up by Flathead lake and saw a sign for Blacktail mountain "jeep" trail. Does anyone know much aboit them? Good idea or bad idea to head up into it alone?

This one is 4x4 routes of western montana. The author describes it as a class 1 to 4. 4 being you need 33s or bigger and one locker and winches suggested they also say there is ways to drive around the tough spots

I sent you a pm. Let me know how this one goes because i was interested in checking it out. Also kinda wanna know what a 4 looks like because a 2.5 in the book was a cake walk.

If anyone is still interested in some info I have been there a couple of times and can provide information, photos, and videos. It is definitely somewhere to go if you want to test the limits of what your vehicle is capable of.

I live pretty close to the Lakeside side with quite a bit of parking if you need to pre stage. Need to do some tlc on my 40 before I run it anymore.

Ditto on the pics and vids. You can cross it in a stocker, some of the obstacles are not stocker friendly but has ample bypasses.

the trail itself is easy. along the trail there are several optional obstacles that lead back to the main trail. depending on how froggy you feel and built your vehicle is will determine the fun and potential pucker factor. but over all, it's as easy or hard as you want to make it.. I also highly encourage everyone to attend at least one of the BigSky 4x4 clubs annual Snow Bash that they put on!
