Sawtell Peak can be accessed by a heavily trafficked road leading from US 20 south of Henrys Lake. The road is about 13 miles (21 km) long and involves a 3,440 feet (1,050 m) climb from US 20 to the summit. The road can be dangerous, and at the high altitude, drivers could encounter abrupt snow storms.[6] The snow can be up to 25 feet (7.6 m) deep and avalanches are a hazard. The road to the summit is closed from November 1 to June 1, but is maintained by the FAA. During the closure, the road is only accessible for personnel associated with the communications facilities at the top. Snowmobiling is not allowed on the road. There are no roads or trails leading to the north summit.[3]

The average size is 19 inches, although Idaho Fish and Game found hybrids longer than 25 inches. Brook trout make up 21 percent of the population. The average length is 16 inches, with biologists finding several brook trout that exceeded 20 inches in length.[11] There is a fish hatchery on the north side of the lake that helps to replenish the lake.[12]

Two Top is a very famous trail in the Island Park/ West Yellowstone area. It is probably more famously known as a great snowmobile trail during winter but in the summer its still a very scenic and relatively easy route that offers riverside riding and panoramic views.
