Mount Wam Lookout

In
Kootenai National Forest
1 site ¡ Lodging

When you pop open the shutters at Mt.

Wam Lookout you’re going to be glad you endured the hike to get to these epic mountain views! One of three trails can be hiked to this tiny peak-teetering cabin, none of which are recommended for kiddos, just full sized adventurers. It comes equipped with an outdoor restroom, platform beds, a woodstove, and there’s a small spring located near the cabin. An otherwise backcountry experience means you’ll need to haul in your finest glamp style beddings, cuisine, water, and don’t forget the TP! A primitive place with views that take your breath away, the lookout on Mt. Wam is certainly an adventure.
