Hiking, Walking, Birding, and Wildlife Photography
Hiking - Surrounded By Wilderness

T Cross is literally at the end of the road, surrounded by wilderness. Head out in any direction and you’ll be rewarded with unforgettable views, abundant wildflowers, and a variety of bird life, such as the mountain bluebird, golden and bald eagles, western tanagers, red-tailed hawks, and green hummingbirds.
Hiking - Wildlife
Beautiful flowers from the pasture
Birds are not the only wild life. The mountains around T Cross are home to, or a way station for, deer, moose, elk, coyote, mountain lion, lynx, bear, beaver, badgers, and wolves. Moose come to munch on the willows in the pasture.
Hiking - Bear, Mountain Lion, and Wolves
Bear pass through T Cross, especially in the spring, leaving signs and prints. Mountain lion are in the area, though extremely elusive. Yellowstone’s wolves are well established and are occasionally seen.
