About
Overview
West Fork Cabin is a rustic Forest Service Guard Station located 39 miles northwest of Choteau, Montana, on the Rocky Mountain Front Range. The cabin is a stone’s throw from the North Fork Teton River and about 3.5 miles beyond Teton Pass Ski Resort. Open year-round, the cabin provides access to a wide range of summer and winter recreation activities such as hiking, fishing, horseback riding, cross country skiing and snowshoeing. This rustic cabin is accessible via paved county road, then gravel Forest Service Road. During the winter months when the ski area is operating, the Forest Service gravel road is plowed to the ski area. Beyond that point, guests will need to ski, show shoe or snowmobile to travel the last 3.5 miles to the cabin. Travel may be a challenge in early spring. The cabin is available year-round for rental, seven days a week. Contact the Ranger District for current road conditions.
