Trail Overview

Starting from Montana Highway 282, you will take the bend onto Tizer Lake Road, which leads to Prickly Pear Road. Prickly Pear Road goes through private land, but there is a designated route to access Tizer Lake. A compressor or other method to air tires up or down is recommended since the majority of the trail contains large rocks and loose gravel. High-clearance vehicles are not necessary at the beginning of the trails. However, once you make the right-hand turn toward Tizer Lakes, there are several water crossings, most of which are just under 12 inches deep.
