Feeder Creek is a 4.1-mile out-and-back hike in the Three Rivers Ranger District of Kootenai National Forest in northwest Montana, about 4 miles from the town of Yaak. The Forest Service manages the land, and the trail is rated moderate, with a one-way climb of about 2,180 feet from a low point near 2,990 feet to a high of about 5,170 feet. The trail is natural-surfaced and allows bikes, so it works for hikers and riders alike. Kilbrennan Lake Campground sits less than a mile away, making it the closest place to camp.
