About Flattops

The Flattops is a rugged mountain range located in southwestern Montana, near the borders of Idaho and Wyoming. The range is characterized by its broad, gently sloping plateau-like summits, which give it a distinctive flat-topped appearance. The terrain is predominantly alpine, with steep cirques, glacial valleys, and numerous alpine lakes dotting the landscape. The Flattops are part of the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest, offering ample opportunities for outdoor recreation.
