Poia Lake is on the Red Gap Trail out of the Many Glacier
Valley in the NE corner of Glacier National Park. Red Gap Trail is one of two
trails from the Many Glacier area that lead into Elisabeth Lake, the other is
the Ptarmigan Tunnel Trail.
This is a fairly easy but scenic ride, it is only 7.5
miles one way and the trail is not steep. However it is rocky in places and horseshoes
are required....

Updated 9/11/2011This is the primary route for the Foy’s to Blacktail
Trail. There are numerous ways to travel from Herron Park to Blacktail Mountain.
I have been riding this route for years and have refined it over time in an
attempt to avoid boggy areas and really steep areas.
This trail is not maintained, signed, marked or mapped. It
is primitive, at best. There is no bail-out point other than the Patrick
Creek-Emmons Road on the Forest Service....
