The Upsidedown Creek Trail, in the heart of the Absaroka Beartooth Wilderness, offers endless possibilities for adventure. The trail switchbacks through the woods, offering occasional but spectacular views of the Boulder River, Box Canyon, and the jagged peaks of the Absarokas before topping out at Horseshoe Lake. Here, you can bask in views of the Beartooth Mountains or hike a few more miles to reach Lake Plateau, a wonderland of lakes, streams, ridges, and mountains. The open terrain lets you wander to your heart’s content, and the endless beauty means you can’t make a bad decision about which way to go.
