Flossy Creek is a short mountain biking route in Montana's Flathead National Forest, within the Hungry Horse Ranger District, about half a mile long and roughly 400 feet of elevation gain. The Forest Service manages the surrounding land, and the trail starts near 6,275 feet, rising to about 6,717 feet before a small descent of about 240 feet. The climb is steep in places, with the steepest stretch at about 0.4 miles in, where the grade reaches about 24 percent. That makes the route a quick but punchy ride, with little time to rest between the low and high points. Several other mountain biking destinations sit close by. Blackfoot Lake is about a mile away, and Tongue Mtn. and Wildcat Lake are both within about a mile and a half. For an overnight stay, the Flossy Bay Dispersed Camp South Site is about 4.7 miles off.
