Fun Run - Lower Mount Ellis
2025-07-23 18:30 - 20:00 | Lower Mount Ellis, Mt Ellis Ln, Bozeman, MT, 59715, United States
The Lower Mt. Ellis trail begins by crossing a large open field with a steady incline (bikers, take note: it’s a bit of a grunt). At the top of the field is treeline, where an old logging road takes you up and around to the east side of the mountain. After a couple miles and a few switchbacks, the logging road takes a hard left, and a single-track trail continues up the flank of the mountain—straight up, mind you. After gaining a knoll, the final ascent gets even steeper, eventually topping out on a limestone outcropping with sweeping views of Triple Tree below, the Gallatin Valley beyond, and mountain ranges in all directions. If you’re not too pooped, continue south along the ridge to Mt. Ellis.

At the end of Toohey, turn right onto Walker Road, which will bend back left (east) and become Saddle Mountain Road. Continue on Saddle Mountain (do NOT turn onto Middle Cottonwood Lane – it does not lead to the trailhead!) until it makes a 90-degree bend to the left (north); go north across the creek, then turn right onto the continuation of Saddle Mountain Road, which leads to the trailhead parking.
Please consider carpooling to this event, as the trailhead parking lot is limited. Carpooling will be from the NE corner of the Fairgrounds parking lot, west of the baseball stadium and across Oak from The Cannery District. We will plan to leave from the carpool location at 5:30, as it’s a ways out to the start point.

Run on land owned by Franklin Coles, a former BSWD President, the courses are tough, hilly trail runs high above the valley floor, with extensive views near Bozeman Pass.

When the wolves left temporarily, the ‘Wolves’ part of the run name was changed to ‘Critters’ – but now some wolves are back. Watch, and listen, for them!

Take Jackson Creek Road north (passing under the Interstate) Drive about 3 miles, and turn right onto Bridger Hollow Road (look for the Howlers Inn sign).
