Salmon Forks Outfitters, Montana, Bob Marshall Wilderness Adventures.

Salmon Forks Outfitters offers spectacular Montana Elk hunting and fishing adventure trips in Northwest Montana’s Bob Marshall Wilderness Area. When it comes to great Montana destinations, you’ll love the “Bob”. Containing more than one million acres of rugged wilderness beauty, the “Bob” is untouched by roads of any kind. The only way to access the wilderness is on foot or horseback.

Janis and Mark Moss formed Salmon Forks Outfitters in 1986. They operate on a United States Forest Service Permit in the Bob Marshall Wilderness. They own and train all of their mountain horses – which are all very gentle and so that little horse experience is needed.

Salmon Forks Outfitters of Montana invites you to try Montana fly fishing, scenic horseback roving pack trips, Elk hunting, Mule Deer, Moose, Black Bear, and Mountain Goats and complete tours through the Bob Marshall Wilderness. Their Montana wilderness camp is located on the South Fork of the Flathead River in the heart of the Bob Marshall Wilderness and is reached by a horseback ride through some of the most spectacular scenery in Montana.

Mark and Janis will personally guide you, in limited groups of six to eight, so you get their full personal attention, and so the bountiful fishing, hunting, and natural beauty is preserved for generations to come.

The Bob Marshall Wilderness

The 1,009,356 acre Bob Marshall Wilderness is located in Northwestern Montana approximately 90 miles south of Kalispell. The “Bob” straddles the Continental Divide with elevations ranging from 4,000 feet along the valley floors to more than 9,000 feet at mountain summits. The Wilderness includes the headwaters of the Flathead River to the west and the Sun River to the east.

Access to the “Bob” is by trails originated from forest roads located in most of the major drainages leading into the area. Major roads encircle the “Bob” including U.S. Highway 2 to the north, U.S. Highway 89 and 287 to the east and Montana Highways 200 and 83 to the south and west.

The Wilderness is noted for its excellent hunting, fishing, scenery, and geology. Its vast beauty is highlighted by a huge escarpment known as the “Chinese Wall”. The wall averages 1,000 feet in height and extends 22 miles along the Continental Divide. Topography ranges from rugged, precipitous ridge tops to gently sloping alpine meadows and forested river bottoms. Wildlife includes wolverine, deer, elk, moose, grizzly bear, black bear, mountain goat, mountain sheep and mountain lion.
