Local Area

Lincoln, Montana is a well-known recreational mining town as gold discoveries in 1860 brought miners to the area. Historically, it has roots rich in the Lewis and Clark expedition. In 1806, Meriwether Lewis passed through the area on his return trip to St. Louis after discovering the route to the western coast. There is plenty of wilderness around Lincoln for exploring. Visitors and locals can hike, bike, fish, hunt, bird watch, watch for wildlife, go horseback riding, or snowmobile. In 2017, Lincoln was named the first Continental Divide Trail Gateway Community in Montana because of the three access points found at Stemple Pass, Flescher’s Pass, and Roger’s Pass. As a result, there are ample opportunities for hikers and visitors to get out in the fresh mountain air and camp, fish, or hunt! The town was named in August of 1865 after the 16th President Abraham Lincoln was assassinated. Lincoln is located 80 miles east of Missoula and is the perfect base location for all your outdoor adventures!

Area Attractions

Fishing Opportunities

The Blackfoot River Valley is encompassed by great fishing areas! The Blackfoot River is 130 miles of pure mountain waters flowing along Highway 200.

Snowbank Lake and Copper Lake are full of Cutthroat Trout.
Helena-Lewis and Clark National Forest

Perhaps the greatest diversity of any national forest in Montana is found within the Helena-Lewis and Clark National Forest. Spanning almost 2.9 million acres from the Big Snowy Mountains of Central Montana to the alpine peaks of the Continental Divide, it is comprised of island mountain ranges and segments of the Northern Rockies. It is managed by way of six ranger districts, spanning 17 Montana counties. From deep-rooted history to seemingly unlimited outdoor recreation opportunities, the landscapes within the forest have much to offer. Two previously independent national forests make up the current forest. The Helena portion was established in 1908 and initially covered the landscape around the state capital of Helena. The Lewis and Clark National Forest spans land to the north and east of Helena including the Rocky Mountain Front. It was established in 1906 and was named after the leaders of the Corps of Discovery who passed through the area in 1805 and 1806. In 2015 the forests were combined. With its incredible span, it contains unique landscapes. Wilderness areas provide some of the most pristine habitats in Montana. Hundreds of miles of trails wind through every landscape. The Continental Divide National Scenic Trail snakes through much of it and carries hikers across the watershed of the continent. Miles of rivers and countless lakes provide some of the best fishing opportunities in the state, and hunting in the forest draws hunters from across the state and nation. Regardless of where one travels, the awesome scenery and landscapes are sure to impress.
