Description

This is a relatively short out-and-back hike up to the "L" overlooking the Lower Rattlesnake neighborhood of Missoula. If you're up to the challenge, keep going once you get to the "L" to reach the summit via a connector trail to the Jumbo Backbone Trail! Bring water -- there are only a handful of shaded areas on the hike!

Flora & Fauna

Small passerine birds, wild grasses, wildflowers.
