We are excited to announce that this summer we have 6 trips to choose from
in 3 different locations around Montana: Sleeping Giant north of Helena,
The Missouri River Breaks BLM Wilderness Study Areas, and the Absaroka
Beartooth Wilderness.
Note that our first trip will be departing May 27, so please sign up soon!
As always, our trips are free and open to the public and entail the
following:
* 3-6-day trips into the backcountry;
* Opportunity to learn about invasive species, native plants, wilderness
character monitoring methods, and the natural history of vast wilderness
areas and smaller wilderness study areas;
* Backcountry experience is helpful but not necessary (please review
specific trip descriptions to pick the right trip for your ability level);
* Dinners provided daily; and
* Transportation is available from Missoula as well as selected towns in
study vicinity.
Please don¹t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.
Thank you,
