The root cellar is located across B Road from the quartermaster's warehouse, near the site of many of the original buildings in the fort. It has four large vents on top, making it quite easy to spot from nearby.

The listing for the root cellar as a contributing building can be found on page 22 of the Montana Memory Project's posting of the Ft. Missoula Historic District Addendum.
