The Crazy Mountain Range is reported to rise dramatically some 7,000 feet above the Yellowstone River Valley and the surrounding plains 15 miles northwest of Big Timber. They cover an area of 136,547 acres in which my friend Paul and I plan to explore a small chunk of it. It is a road-less area and we will be accessing it from Big Timber Canyon Road from the East.

These formations stimulate the desire to reach a higher place but also geologists who say there is an abundance of trapped gas. I think Ill climb around a little before technology is used to ruin this remote wilderness wonder. In the past nineteenth century railroad land grants, now mostly passed on to other parties, make coherent resource management difficult. Efforts to preserve this place as a wilderness have failed in the past, but conservationists have once again proposed wilderness designation for the Crazies. I am in support of such efforts but for the moment, however, the Crazy Mountains remain the most spectacular alpine range in Montana without wilderness protection.
