Map


Skalkaho Pass, 7,260 feet above sea level, is located in Southwest Montana. It connects the towns of Hamilton, MT in the Bitterroot Valley and Philipsburg in Flint Creek Valley and remains the only direct route between these two important agricultural areas. Originally an Indian route, Highway 38 was built in 1924 for mining and logging activity. The route is closed during winter season due to heavy snowfall. Skalkaho Falls are located near the top of the pass.
