The Wise River Ranger District is a part of the Wisdom Ranger District of the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest in southwest Montana, managed by the Forest Service. It is a district for river fishing rather than a single trail or peak, and the land itself is a base for exploring the surrounding creeks and rivers. Several short hikes start close by. Meadow Creek is about 0.4 miles away, and Osborne Creek and Reservior Creek are both about 2.7 miles off. For an overnight stay, Pettengill Campground lies roughly 4.8 miles from the district, and the Wise River, about 5.4 miles away, offers canoeing.
