We are located about 26 miles northwest of Big Timber, Montana (the small "X" just above Big Timber on the map) smack dab in the middle of the Crazy Mountains.  If you are coming from Billings (80 miles east on I-90) or Bozeman (70 miles west on I-90), just take the first exit into Big Timber, then go 11.5 miles north on US HWY 191 to second Wormser loop signJust after passing the 11 mile marker, you should see a small sign that says "National Forest Access" on your right.  Turn left (west) onto the gravel road and follow it for about 2.5 miles  until you come to a "T" in the road where you should see a second, smaller sign on your right that says "Big Timber Canyon." (The road "bends" around to the left after you leave the pavement, so you'll be headed due south when you see the second sign.) Turn right at the second sign (you are now headed due west towards the mountains) and follow the road for about 13 miles into the US Forest Service.  We are located inside the national forest boundary so keep going until you see our sign!   We are right in the middle of the mountains, so as long as you can see the power lines, you're ok!
