Montana Vacation Rental Cabins - Gallatin River Montana Vacation Cabins. The Trout Club

For easy hiking and lots of beauty, do not miss nearby Hyalite Recreation Area in the Gallatin National Forest.

You can drive there by taking 19th Avenue South in Bozeman. It is 12 miles south of Bozeman. If you have a map, you can also take the shortcut from The Trout Club by going East on Cottonwood Road off of Hwy 191.

	Palisade Falls in Hyalite is a result of a prehistoric lava flow. This flow was frozen in time in the form of unique hexagon pillars of rock called "columnar basalt." Today East Fork Hyalite Creek follows the ancient flow and creates the spectacular 80 foot falls. A 1/2 mile paved trail leads to the base of the falls.
Helen, Nicholas, Alice and Mike take a photo shot at the base of one of the streams cascading down from Palisade Falls.
	Grotto Falls in Hyalite is reached by passing Window Rock on your hike to Arch Falls and Hyalite Lake on Hyalite Creek Trail #427. If you want to enjoy river rafting, check with Flying Pig River Rafting - Yellowstone river rafting and much more.
Lone Mountain is the home of two luxury ski resorts: Big Sky and Moonlight Basin. It is just a short drive from the cabins. Bridger Bowl Ski Resort is located 15 miles on the other side of Bozeman. It is much less expensive than the luxury resorts and it is only a few minutes further away.
	White Water Rafting Enjoy rapids such as Hilarity Hole, Screaming Left, and High-Speed Alley. View the lair of the Gallatin River snake and the cave where the bus driver was raised by packrats. Great for families and first timers, this trip is packed with excitement!
Gallatin Petrified Forest: This petrified forest consists of wood and fossil thought to be 35 - 50 million years old. Many fossilized trees remain in upright position.	Take Interstate 90 east to Livingston. Then Hwy 89 south to Tom Miner Road just north of Yankee Jim Canyon. Follow the trail 1/2 mile to Gallatin Petrified Forest.
