2 nights at Little Goose Tree Fort

Beautiful private spot right on a peaceful creek and surrounded by farm land. Easy access to the northern Bighorn mountains and Chad was so gracious and accommodating - he even took the time to look over some maps of the wilderness and show me some beautiful areas to hike and camp. Wonderful experience!
