Description

This moderately-rising ridgeline trail, opened in the summer of 2022, links the Inez Creek Trail to the Mt. Dean Stone Preserve Trail. Access can be gained via the Skyline Ridge Trailhead if you don't want to make the run from a lower starting point. Wildflowers are plentiful in the summertime and there are several great views of the Bitteroot range, particularly as you peak Mitten Mountain and as you approach Mt. Dean Stone.
