ON THE BLACKFOOT - North Fork Crossing fishing lodge was built in 1997 in a secluded little valley of its own on the North Fork of the Blackfoot River. A River Runs Through It, the book and the movie, have made this legendary river famous, but PRO has been guiding folks in this phenomenal valley since before the book was published in 1976.

The North Fork Crossing is an ideal setting if you want to get off the world and really fish in a quiet unaffected place with genuine people. It is a unique addition to the existing fly fishing vacation spots. The lodge which serves as the meeting and dining facility is spacious and distinctively detailed to match the exceptional quality experiences identified with Paul Roos Outfitters.

The fabled Big Blackfoot River has wild Westslope Cutthroat, Bull Trout, browns and rainbows and is beautiful beyond belief. Excellent fly-fishing opportunities abound on the property and in the surrounding area. Float fishing and wading private waters provide more opportunities than you could fish in a month. Three distinct mountain ranges are visible from a deck which also overlooks four trout ponds and the North Fork of the Blackfoot River. The surrounding hills are covered with Douglas Fir, Ponderosa, Rocky Mountain Juniper, Engelmann Spruce and aspen groves.

Roughing it in style perhaps best describes your stay at North Fork Crossing.

The guest sleeping accommodations are very unusual. Oversized custom-made beds, screened windows and doors, electricity and controlled comfort heat, and a deck make this "camping" experience memorable beyond your wildest imagination. Take a short walk and enjoy a private modern bath — one for each tent-cabin.

Dining at the North Fork Crossing elevates the rustic experience to another level. We are very proud of the gourmet dining we provide, inspired by a culinary school trained chef who is also an owner! Begin your day with a breakfast buffet of exotic egg casseroles or stuffed French toast and hot apple cider syrup. Lunch is served riverside by your guide and is guaranteed to fortify an angler for the afteroon hatch. Our talented culinary team prepares creative dinners worthy of the finest restaurants. A lively salad of wild greens followed by our grilled buffalo steak with spicy mango chutney leads to homemade cheesecake with local huckleberries and the end of an incredible day.

Paul Roos Outfitters has a long reputation for providing a memorable and quality vacation experience. In 1996 PRO was chosen as the first annual "Orvis Endorsed Outfitter of the Year." The award was given to recognize an outfitting business and its unsurpassed expertise demonstrated in providing customers with world-class service. The entire PRO team reflects a respect for service as well as a passion for the environment and the sport of fly fishing.
