Where can I go Cross Country Skiing?

It's located near the Lost Trail Ski Area at the top of Lost Trail Pass at the southern end of the Bitterroot Valley. There is a cozy log cabin available at the trailhead for skiers to enjoy lunch or to warm up. Trail Maps (maps are also available at the trailhead).
