Eagle Guard Station is located in high grasslands and surrounded by a scattered forest in the Elkhorn Mountains in west\-central Montana\. The former Eagle Creek Ranger Station was built by miner Richard Owen in 1895\. While his family lived there, the area was in a booming gold rush\. In 1908, the cabin was taken over by the Forest Service for administrative use\. It is the oldest administrative log structure on the Helena National Forest, predating the establishment of the Forest\. Today the cabin is a rustic retreat for guests seeking relaxation and recreation\. The cabin is accessible by car, but the last 4 miles are only open to foot, horseback and cross\-country ski traffic from December 2nd through May 15th\. Several amenities are provided, but guests should be prepared to pack in some of their own supplies and gear\.
