About this property
Tent #1 | Oxen-Le-Fields Montana
With a perfect view of Sula Peak, Tent #1 is a 12x14 canvas tent featuring a comfortable king bed complete with linen, and cozy woodstove with free firewood. Wi-fi is free, and the tent has one power strip for electronics. Guests have access to nearby potable water and a communal composting toilet. Patio chairs, propane barbecue, and a communal picnic table are at the campsite for your enjoyment. Relax with your favorite beverage on the patio overlooking Sula Peak and enjoy the sounds of nature.
Oxen-Le-Fields Montana offers 6 sunny acres surrounded by national forest, a tiny cabin, and 2 outfitter tents for outdoor enthusiasts to enjoy. The remarkable view includes an abundance of wildlife, Sula Peak, forest hills as far as the eye can see, and a peek of the beautiful Bitterroot River at the bottom of the hill.
The tents are located in nature and while we work hard to ensure nature stays outside, please be prepared for the possibility of nature occasionally sneaking inside. We don’t refund for bugs or critters but If you should see some during your stay, contact us immediately and we will come take care of things for you as best we can. We truly want your stay to be memorable.
FRESH WATER:
The Bitterroot River provides potable water for campers. There are multiple spigots around the property that can fill your water needs.
BATHROOM:
A composting toilet is stationed near the tents for guests to use.
COOKING:
Guests are welcome to cook right on their tent's woodstove. There's also a propane BBQ next to the picnic table for use.
WOODSTOVE:
The woodstove is the tent's source of heat, and does a magnificent job. Grab firewood from the nearby pile or chop firewood from any downed trees in the forest. Feel free to cook on the woodstove.
FIREPIT:
Toss wood into the firepit located in the yard to enjoy a contained fire any time burning is allowed (per county burn rules).
FOREST:
Oxen-Le-Fields Montana offers direct access to the Bitterroot Forest. Follow the trail at the back left corner of the property to access miles of forest service roads, or just walk into the surrounding forest and begin hiking to enjoy all the forest has to offer.
FOREST ACCESS:
Horses, mules, side x sides and other all-terrain vehicles can access the forest from the trail at the back left corner of the property. Trucks and other vehicles can access the forest at the bottom of the driveway (take the middle fork instead of the left fork that leads to Oxen-Le-Fields Montana).
PETS:
We have two dogs and your pets are welcome, too. Pets may sleep inside the tent but not on the bed (thank you). Also, please keep pets on a lead when at your campsite to prevent them from wandering into other guest sites.
HORSES:
Pack and trail horses are welcome though no fence is available. Please secure horses to your vehicle or trailer when not riding and secure inside trailer at night. Water is available. Please bring own hay and feed.
WILDLIFE:
Deer, elk, bighorn sheep, marmots, and coyotes are abundant. Bear, moose, wolves, and cougars also share the forest. Please respect the wildlife and understand the inherent dangers they pose. Bear spray is highly recommended when exploring the forest.
THE VIEW:
Why are there downed trees in the forest? On July 31, 2000, dry lightning strikes started approximately 100 fires that decimated over 350,000 acres of the Bitterroot Forest. The fire destroyed 70 homes, 170 other buildings, and 95 vehicles. Although the naked hillsides now offer a remarkable view as far as the eye can see, the devastation from that summer will remain visible for decades to come.
HUNTING:
Oxen-Le-Fields is located in district 270 next to districts 240, 250, and 321.
FISHING:
Blue-ribbon trout are abundant in both the Bitterroot and Big Hole rivers. Bitterroot fishing access is available all along the Hwy 93 corridor. A community fishing pier is less than a mile south. Access to Big Hole is just a short drive away. Four miles north of Darby lies Lake Como where fishing, swimming, and other water activities are enjoyed by all who visit.
SKIING:
A short 16 miles to the south sits Lost Trail Ski Resort, home to 69 runs. Sitting atop the Continental Divide on Highway 93 where Montana and Idaho meet, Lost Trail boasts over 300 inches of snowfall every year for enthusiasts to enjoy.

Conner is 6 miles north and includes a small convenience store, West Fork Mountain Crafts, and Two Rivers Bar with excellent food.

Sitting atop the Continental Divide a short 15 miles south is Lost Trail Ski Resort, featuring 69 trails for snow enthusiasts to enjoy.
Fifteen miles east of Lost Trail Ski Resort is Big Hole National Battlefield which was created to mark the spot where the government raided the Nez Perce people on August 9, 1877, reducing the tribe to 1/10th its original size.
Guests are welcome to enjoy all parts of Oxen-Le-Fields except for the blue workshop. Please respect other campers' personal property as you enjoy the views and wildlife.
Access to the forest is available via a trail at the back left of the property. The trail is steep until it intersects with the forest service road. Go either right or left for unparallel views. Go left to enjoy the view from a prayer bench a short distance away on the right.
Owners live on site and are available 24/7.
DRIVEWAY:
The 1/2 mile driveway up the hill includes 3 switchbacks. The driveway can get muddy after a good rain or snow but is easily accessible in most vehicles.
The switchbacks can accommodate horse trailers and campers up to 35 feet in length.
Please keep all food and trash inside bear-proof container or inside vehicle to avoid attracting bears. Bear spray is highly recommended for safety.
Pets may sleep inside the tent but not on the bed. When not secured inside the tent, please keep pets on a lead to keep them from wandering off or into the other campsites.
Smoking and vaping are allowed outside the tent only. Please extinguish cigarettes before disposing. Additional $25 cleaning fee will be imposed if cigarette butts are found on the property. Thanks.
Free firewood is abundant around the tent. Do not chop down trees. Simply harvest what you need from the fallen logs around camp.
