It was a very beautiful trip to the cabin by way of Drummond and Phillipsburg. Going out the other way (north along Rock Creek) had its beautiful moments, but the road is very full of potholes and we could only go 5-10 mph. The house was much nicer than expected, but the old double beds were a bit uncomfortable. We might consider bringing our own cots next time and there is plenty of room to do so. A beautiful place to immerse yourself in another world!

United States
From Missoula, Montana, travel east on Interstate 90 for about 20 miles to exit 126. Drive south on Rock Creek Road for about 29 miles. Rock Creek Road is a hardened surface for 12 miles and the remainder is a gravel, single-lane road, with intermittent pull-outs. It is not suitable for RVs or trailers, due to blind turns, steep grades and narrow width. Maps are available online or for purchase by calling the Missoula Ranger District.
During late fall and early spring, take the Drummond exit 153 on Interstate 90 and follow Scenic Highway 1 south toward Philipsburg. One mile north of Philipsburg, turn west on State Road 348. Travel 13 miles west, cross Rock Creek and turn north onto Rock Creek Road. Continue 12 miles to the homestead. The road is plowed within 3 miles of the cabin. A four-wheel drive vehicle equipped with chains is recommended. Travelers may also want to bring an alternate form of transportation (skis or snowshoes) to complete the route.
Hogback Homestead is accessible via Interstate 90, with the nearest exit being 126 located approximately 20 miles away. An alternate route can be taken using the Drummond exit 153, which is also on Interstate 90.
