Billings late in the afternoon.
Timberline Trail (12)
leads to Gertrude and Timberline Lakes, both heavily populated with trout. A
steep trail at the beginning, the trail is not a serious challenge for those in
good physical condition. From the top the view is spectacular with Timberline
Lake nestled at the base of a plunging granite cirque.
Length: 4.5 miles
Trail Begins: Forest Road 71
Trail Ends: Timberline Lake
We will depart from the Church late Friday afternoon and head to the Absarokee/Columbus area to camp Friday night. We will go rafting down the Stillwater River on Saturday and then head back to Billings that evening. We will have more details on the location of our campsite, what to bring and cost later.
We will be taking the Junior High and High School Youth Groups to Big Splash for a day of fun. We will depart from the church at 11:30am and will return at 7:30pm. We will have more information about cost soon.
