Holland Lake is the trailhead for a popular trail into the Bob Marshall Wilderness Area. It’s about 10 miles from road’s end to the wilderness boundary, and most people entering this way go around Upper Holland Lake and up over Gordon Pass toward the South Fork of the Flathead River.
Across Highway 83 from Holland Lake, several roads lead west from Condon toward the Mission Mountains Wilderness Area.
The Lindbergh Lake road leads to a campground (free, no water) and several trailheads. Lindbergh Lake is named for Charles Lindbergh, who camped here not long after his transatlantic flight.
Hikers should pick up either a Flathead National Forest map (south half) or a more detailed Mission Mountains Wilderness map. Both are available at the ranger station in Bigfork.
Be aware that the Mission Mountains are home to some grizzly bears.
