Hike Description:

Star Peak is 6167′ and Billiard Table 6,622′. The initial objective is Star summit which is 4,000′ of vertical and 10 miles round trip. If weather and conditions are good, we’ll continue along the ridge to Billiard Table Mountain which adds about another 1,000′ of vertical with a few ups and downs. Expect a long day. We will start the hike at the new trailhead — Big Eddy #998 and make our way up with filtered views of the Clark Fork River. Views from the top are terrific in all directions. The ridge to Billiard is another 3 miles of rock hopping. This will be a long day with a lot of elevation and mileage so be prepared.
