The Ross Creek Scenic Area is located on the Kootenai National Forest in northwest Montana. This 100-acre scenic area is home to a grove of giant, ancient western red cedars. Some of these trees grow up to 12 feet in diameter and 175 feet in height. Consisting of 500-year-old giant red cedars in a rain forest atmosphere, this area is a favorite with visitors to the Forest. Available is a paved nature trail, a very easy walk with informational signs and benches along the route. Ross Creek Trail 142 is 4.5 miles in length and is an excellent day hike through a closed canopy of cedars and hemlocks. There is no overnight use however; Bad Medicine Campground is located nearby. The road to the Cedars is paved but because the road is somewhat steep and winding there is a trailer parking area at the base. Length: .9 mile nature trail -- Township 28N, R34W, Section 12 Elevation: 3,400 feet. Click the link below to see video https://youtu.be/-vfbm1P9p-M
