SNOWMOBILING IN MISSION MOUNTAINS

Location & Getting Here:
Ronan is between Missoula and Kalispell on US Hwy 93 in western Montana. Nearest airports are Missoula, 55 miles south and Kalispell, 65 miles north.

Few people are content merely to look at the Mission Mountains. Maybe more than other mountain range in Montana, these jagged peaks beckon visitors to come closer and explore. Because the trails are on the Flathead Indian Reservation, snowmobilers need special recreation permits widely available at gas stations and convenience stores on the reservation. Snowmobiling is prohibited in the Mission Mountains Wilderness Area.


TRAILS:
The Boulder Trails start just off MT Hwy 35 near Finley Point on Flathead Lake; the first 10 miles are groomed to the top of the range, where the trail connects with nearly 60 miles of ungroomed trails through forest openings. The ungroomed Jocko Lake Trail provides a 35-mile ride over the Missions that connects with groomed trails on the Seeley Lake side.

MILES GROOMED:
45 Miles

ELEVATION:
Ronan, 3,200'; trails to 7,000'

SERVICES:
Snowmobile sales and service are available in Ronan. The nearest rentals are in Kalispell and Columbia Falls. Guided tours may be arranged through the Mission Mountain Snowmobile Club in Ronan. A wide variety of food and lodging services are available throughout the Mission and Flathead valleys.
