Description Suggest change

A windy, open area with quite a few crags suitable for rock climbing all-year-round. Bouldering, trad, and sport routes abound in the Revenue Flats area situated west of Norris, Montana. Find gorgeous views of the Tobacco Root Mountains but be prepared to share your space with ATVs and shooters.

Getting There Suggest change

From Bozeman, MT head west on Hwy 191 to Four Corners. Drive straight ahead as the road turns into Hwy 84 toward Norris, MT. At Norris continue straight ahead again onto the dirt Sterling Rd. At this point directions become difficult as dirt roads stray off in multiple directions. Recommend vehicles with high clearance as the dirt roads are in poor shape.  For an online map of these directions visit: http://tinyurl.com/c54q7b

A map of public/private land boundaries (yellow is BLM). It is definitely a patchwork, but according to this resource map, there is still room for new development out here. Just be careful, I hear some of the local landowners are nuts...<br> <br> www.publiclands.org
