HIKING: Burnt Hollow

Triple Blaze →

Description

The Burnt Hollow Management Area is located approximately 20 miles north of Gillette along Highway 59. Burnt Hollow consists of more than 18,000 acres of public land in sagebrush country with dramatic geologic formations and a diversity of wildlife species. This primitive non-motorized recreation area offers hunting, backpacking, hiking, and horseback riding. Trails are not marked, but several miles of old roads (especially near the south parking lot) provide a network for riding or hiking. Several stock water ponds and small reservoirs are located within the unit, but potable water is not provided. Visitors should come prepared with a map and compass or GPS unit. There are no visitor facilities within the unit.

Directions

From I-90, take Exit 124 and turn north on WY 50/Skyline Drive and continue 0.3 mile to the intersection with Hwy 14/16/59. Turn left onto Highway 14/16/59 and travel 3.4 miles toward Gillette Regional Airport. Turn right onto Highway 59 North directly across from the airport. Continue along Highway 59 N for about 15 miles; the south parking lot is located 15.3 miles north of the intersection at the airport and the north parking lot is 17.9 miles.
