Named for the ruby-colored stones found nearby, this well-preserved ghost town offers a glimpse of life in a turn-of-the-century gold camp. Located in the Garnet Range between I-90 and MT 200, Garnet is best reached from the north, off MT 200, or from I-90, west of Drummond. Winter access from December 1 to May 15 is by snowmobiling or skiing only. There are also winter cabin rentals.
They are open summer days daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Winter hours are weekends only from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Cost is $2 per person for 12 years and over. Every penny of your fee goes to preserve Garnet Ghost Town.
