Community Event - Shape the Future of the Flathead National Forest

Hey everyone - this seems like an important issue to so many of us who like to recreate on public lands. Check out this Wild Montana event:

The U.S. Forest Service is proposing to repeal the Roadless Rule — without asking Montanans how we think our public lands should be managed.

The rule guides the management of over 6 million acres of national forest land in Montana. The agency held 600 public meetings — 34 in Montana — when it wrote the rule. Now, its leadership is rushing to repeal the rule without holding a single public meeting anywhere.

Join us for a community meeting to learn more about the Roadless Rule, explore how repealing it could impact recreation, wildlife, clean water, and public safety on the Flathead National Forest. You’re invited to share your thoughts on the proposed repeal and discuss alternatives for managing the Flathead’s roadless backcountry areas.

Please RSVP if you plan on attending. If the link doesn't work, you can copy and paste. I'll get there early and try to save a few seats.
