Episode Synopsis

There’s no official trail to the summit of Mount Brown, but it’s easy to string together game trails and old two-tracks to make your way to one of north-central Montana’s highest points. Mount Brown is in the Sweetgrass Hills, an island mountain range just a few miles south of the Canadian border. Its grassy flanks and broad ridges provide panoramic views into Alberta and across the Milk River drainage, and mule deer and sharp-tailed grouse thrive on the rich grasslands. Come in the spring to see colorful bursts of pasque flowers, phlox, and other vibrant highlights.
