Uhlhorn Trailhead is a recreation site adjacent to Big Snowy Mountains, southeast of Lewistown, Montana. The site was created by the BLM with cooperation of the Forest Service and the Judith Basin Back Country Horsemen group. The trailhead offers access to a hiking/horseback riding trail that connects to Forest Service trails that lead to Halfmoon Pass and Crystal Lake. A large parking lot, a vault toilet, and hitching posts are available at the trailhead.
Getting there
The Uhlhorn Trailhead is approximately 23 miles south from Main Street Lewistown, Montana. From Main Street in Lewistown turn south onto 1st Avenue S/MT-238. Continue to follow MT-238 for 11.3 miles. Turn slight right onto Red Hill Road. Continue 11.2 miles and Uhlhorn Trailhead will be on the right. Visitors are encouraged to obtain an accurate map from the nearest BLM office.
1991–2020 averages from the nearest NOAA station, 9.1 mi away — not measured at the facility itself, and elevation can make a real difference over that distance.
