Enjoyed this hike as a two day backpack. The trail up to the ridge was steep. We expected the run east along the ridge to be a break after the climb, but there was a lot of up and down along the ridge as well. Stellar views of Glacier and Sloan peaks, good weekend! Says Todd R
This trail has only one trailhead, so you'll be backpacking it in and back out. Of course, this is an overnight hike, 3 days normally, so better have big a backpack to fit all the stuff you need. Now this backpacking and hiking trail is pretty long, so make sure you bring plenty of supplies. Being 20.6 miles long; it's longer than many backpacking and hiking trails. Different parts of Lost Creek Ridge Trail are at very different elevations, so keep in mind that you may need to dress differently at different elevations. The total elevation difference for Lost Creek Ridge Trail is 4,949 feet which is a higher than average number.
