Hiking
There are plenty of trails for fabulous hiking around Essex and Pinnacle. You can hike the Dickey Creek Trail. On this 4.8-mile trail, you need to be aware that the hike starts out as a moderate trek but becomes strenuous from the head of the valley to the lake. Another short hike is the Marion Lake Trail through the spruce forest. If you like longer trips, take the 18.8-mile trail from Walton Ranger Station to the Scalplock Lookout. This day hike takes you to the breathtaking vistas of the Flathead Range and snowy peaks of the Bob Marshall Wilderness.

Winter Sports
The Essex Ski Trail system provides gentle grades and enough snow to make your adventure one of the best. Snowshoeing is a wonderful recreational activity, traveling over the white landscapes of this pristine wilderness. Try the route from the Fielding Picnic Area to Ole Creek.
