Drive from Bozeman to Big Sky Montana through Gallatin National Forest
Crazy Mountain Trail 267 Obliteration and Relocation Proposal flyover
100 year old Crazy Mountain Porcupine Lowline Trail #267 (orange).
The Forest Service, with the landowner and the landowner/Stockgrower/ PCEC working group came up with the proposal to obliterate the northern portion of our historical public access Trail #267, moving it to higher elevations on public land.
This red proposed path is based on lines on a flat topo map by the Forest Service Deputy Supervisor in charge of the project. The engineer has stated they are just lines on a map until he gets boots on the ground to see what the lay of the land is.
In 2002 a hunt club was set up, with the landowner blocking off public access on Trail #267. The landowners land was purchased in the 1950s with the pre-existing historical public trail. Without doing a legally required NEPA Environmental Assessment or Environmental Impact Study, the FS has decided to use a Categorical Exclusion for over 8 miles of new trail at up and down high elevations, crossing 4 creeks, where FS Sensitive Species wolverines and genetically pure Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout are.
We need the Forest Service to conduct the proper NEPA process, input from other agencies like MT FWP and specialists in their fields, like engineers.
The Forest Service maintains, In the Gallatin National Forest's Motor Vehicle Use Map, the Forest Service has chosen to identify the Porcupine-Lowline trail system, as well as several other trail systems crossing private lands, because the Forest Service believes the United States has an 'easement interest' in this trail system, an the Forest Service has a responsibility to manage this trail system under the Forest's Travel Management Plan.
2007 sworn affidavit, It is the Forest Service position that the United States, on behalf of the public, has an easement interest in these roads and trails (#195, #258, #267 and #272) due to the historic and ongoing public and administrative use and maintenance. The public is the beneficiary of this right of access and the Forest Service defends and maintains that right.

This summer I was fortunate to work as a wilderness ranger and trail crew with the US Forest Service on the Gallatin National Forest in Montana. We cleared existing trails and occasionally built new ones. We also did some research in the alpine realm. We hiked a lot a lot. somewhere around 400 to 500 miles in the elusive Absaroka Beartooth Wilderness. Thanks to the 1964 Wilderness Act which protects the area. A wilderness, in contrast with those areas where man and his own works dominate the landscape, is hereby recognized as an area where the earth and community of life are untrammeled by man, where man himself is a visitor who does not remain. You are not allowed to use mechanized vehicles. The only way to get around is by foot or horseback. We used 6 ft cross cut saws and two bit axes to clear trails, compared to non wilderness where you can use atvs and chain saws. It felt like going back in to a simpler time when the whole country was still wild and undeveloped. It is good to see there are wild places left on the planet. Also theres a little bit of footage from Jellystone national parking lot.

Crazy Mountain FS Trails 195 and 268 flyover
100 year old Crazy Mountain Porcupine Lowline Trail #267 (orange). The Forest Service maintains, In the Gallatin National Forest's Motor Vehicle Use Map, the Forest Service has chosen to identify the Porcupine-Lowline trail system, as well as several other trail systems crossing private lands, because the Forest Service believes the United States has an 'easement interest' in this trail system, an the Forest Service has a responsibility to manage this trail system under the Forest's Travel Management Plan.
Trails #195 and #268 are in purple, intersecting from Porcupine #267, in the north and #197/271, in the south, by Ibex cabin and trailhead. This flyover shows the necessary construction of switchbacks for high elevations, which will add mileage to the proposed trail; but it also shows part of the Porcupine Lowline System we already have established.
2007 sworn affidavit, It is the Forest Service position that the United States, on behalf of the public, has an easement interest in these roads and trails (#195, #258, #267 and #272) due to the historic and ongoing public and administrative use and maintenance. The public is the beneficiary of this right of access and the Forest Service defends and maintains that right.
In 2002 a hunt club was set up, with the landowner blocking off public access on Trail #267, which also affects #195 access, which stems off of #267 (orange). The landowners land was purchased in the 1950s with the pre-existing public trail system.
Additionally, section 15 and 23, which Trail #195 goes through, have public access road easements on them from the Northern Pacific Railroad grants.

Basic Recon of Clearwater National Forest: In Search of Wildness
Sticking close to the road in order to cover more ground as I scouted out the area, I set out to see what the Clearwater National Forest was all about. The open prairie of the farmlands here in my temporary home in Idaho are peaceful and beautiful, but it's the more wild places that seem to call to me the most. This day trip allowed me to not only make a basic reconnaissance of the area for future adventures but it allowed me to discover some important truths that I hope to live by as I move forward with my journey.

I Will Defend Montana's Public Lands
My name is Jared Pettinato, and I’m running for Congress. Representative Greg Gianforte is attacking our public lands. He has voted consistently to undermine public lands protections. That makes me mad.
I served nine years at the United States Department of Justice defending our public lands—here in Montana and throughout the United States. I worked to stop special interest groups from bending the government for their own ends. I defended Forest Service projects on the Helena, Lewis and Clark, Gallatin, and Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forests.
I also defended wind farms, highways, and public rail.
The United States gave me tough cases. It trusted me with $16 billion of projects. I took on the wealthy interests on behalf of the people. Just last year, for example, I defeated Beverly Hills and saved taxpayers $1.5 billion.
Here in Montana, I defended the Montana Wilderness Study Act on some travel plans. The courts use my interpretation of that act, essentially, to keep those areas as wild as they were in 1977. Representative Gianforte wants to eliminate those protections, so that feels personal to me.
Look, we need someone who can leverage good deals for Montana. My nine years of experience with the Rubik’s cube of federal land laws and agencies gives me that leverage. You can pick someone else and wait nine years to gain that experience, or you can pick me, and we can start together tomorrow.

SUMMARY
=======
The Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest is the largest of the National Forests in Montana, United States. Covering 3.36 million acres (13,600 km2), the forest is broken into nine separate sections and stretches across eight counties in the southwestern area of the state. President Theodore Roosevelt named the two forests in 1908 and they were merged in 1996. Forest headquarters are located in Dillon, Montana. In Roosevelt's original legislation, the Deerlodge National Forest was called the Big Hole Forest Reserve. He created this reserve because the Anaconda Copper Mining Company, based in Butte, Montana, had begun to clearcut the upper Big Hole River watershed. The subsequent erosion, exacerbated by smoke pollution from the Anaconda smelter, was devastating the region. Ranchers and conservationists alike complained to Roosevelt, who made several trips to the area.
(Munday 2001)
The greatest part of the Anaconda-Pintler Wilderness is located in the larger Beaverhead National Forest portion of 2,130,671 acres (8,622.52 km2), which is 64% of the total area of the forest. The rest of this wilderness extends into the neighboring Deerlodge and Bitterroot National Forests. The Beaverhead section includes most of the Pioneer, Gravelly, and Sapphire Ranges. Both the Centennial and Bitterroot mountain ranges are also located here, with the Continental divide found in the Bitterroot range. Lemhi Pass, at an elevation 7,323 feet (2,300 m) above sea level, is a rounded saddle in the Beaverhead Mountains of the Bitterroot Range, along the Continental Divide, between Montana and Idaho. Here, in 1805, the Lewis and Clark Expedition first saw the headwaters of the Columbia River, which flow to the Pacific Ocean, and crossed what was then the western boundary of the United States. Lemhi Pass was the point at which the members of the expedition realized that there was not a waterway that would lead from east to west across the continent. Lemhi Pass was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1960. The Lee Metcalf Wilderness, in the Madison mountain range, is a part of what is known as the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. However, most of the Lee Metcalf lies in neighboring Gallatin National Forest. The Beaverhead section lies, in descending order of land area, in parts of Beaverhead, Madison, Deer Lodge, and Silver Bow counties. There are local ranger district offices located in Dillon, Ennis, Wisdom, and Wise River.
The smaller Deerlodge National Forest portion of 1,227,155 acres (4,966.12 km2), at 37% of the total area of the forest, encompasses much of the Tobacco Root Mountains and Flint Creek Range and parts of the Elkhorn Mountains; it straddles the Continental Divide in the Boulder and Highland Mountains. A number of ghost towns serve as reminders of the extensive mining history of the region. The Deerlodge portion of the forest, located northwest of the Beaverhead portion, lies in sections of Granite, Jefferson, Silver Bow, Deer Lodge, Powell, and Madison counties. There are local ranger district offices located in Butte, Philipsburg, and Whitehall.
Ponderosa pine, and various species of fir, spruce and juniper are the dominant tree species. Almost a third of the forest lands have no forest at all, and are instead rangeland with sagebrush, grass and the occasional cactus. The forest is also home to the grizzly bear, Canadian lynx, bald eagle, bull trout, Arctic grayling, and the wolf, the latter being a migrant from northern Montana and from the Yellowstone wolf reintroduction program. Elk, mule deer, moose, bighorn sheep and pronghorn and black bear are more commonly found.
The highest mountains in the forest top out at over 11,000 feet (3,400 m). The Continental Divide National Scenic Trail and the Nez Perce National Historical Trail both pass through sections of the forest. In total, there are over 1,500 miles (2,400 km) ...
