About the Campground
Looking to stay in an active fire lookout- a room with a view? Monument Peak Lookout is on the top of a mountain and has a spectacular view of the Little Belt Mountains. It was built in 1936 by the CCC and has been removed from its original tower and restored for the public. The last 4 miles of road access are rough and a high clearance vehicle is recommended. Snowmobiles, cross-country skis or snowshoes are required for access during most of the winter. There are good small and big game hunting opportunities in this area.
Pets are to be leashed or kenneled outside of the rental building. Users are responsible in removing all pet food and droppings prior to departure.
