Treasure Mt 2 is a moderate hike of about 4.4 miles in the Helena Ranger District of the Helena-Lewis and Clark National Forest in Montana, managed by the Forest Service. The trail is an out-and-back with a one-way climb of about 508 feet, starting at roughly 6,536 feet and reaching about 7,045 feet at the top. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Butte show July highs around 81°F with lows near 46°F, and the station sits about 1,500 feet lower than the trail, so temperatures on the mountain run cooler. Bikes are allowed on the natural-surface trail. Treasure Mt 1 lies about half a mile away, and Negro Mt 2 and Negro Mt 3 are each about 1.7 miles off. For an overnight stay, Kading Campground is about 6.3 miles away.
