About Ear Mountain Cabin

The Ear Mountain Cabin was a Lewis and Clark National Forest Administrative Cabin that was renovated in 2022. The cabin is located approximately 26 miles west of the town of Choteau, Montana. The drive to the cabin is easy. The first 17 miles are paved (Teton Canyon Road) and the last mile is a well maintained gravel road (South Fork Teton Road). The cabin sits under the northeast slope of Ear Mountain and is within easy access of the Ear Mountain Wildlife Management Area, Headquarters Pass and Our Lake Trailheads, and numerous other trails into the Bob Marshall Wilderness Area.
