The One Must Hike Trail in Montana Sounds Gorgeous
It s almost that time of year to get outside and get in all the hikes you can before that long Montana winter comes because that cold comes sooner than you think.
MSN Lifestyle came out with list of the One Must Hike Trail in Every State and I was highly interested because Montana is filled with hiking trails that are absolutely fantastic. From right here in Bozeman to Yellowstone National Park to Glacier National Park, there are so many to choose from so I had to know.
According to MSN Lifestyle, the one must hike trail in Montana is in the Kootenai National Forest and it s called the South Fork Ross Creek Trail. The trail is a good stretch at over seven miles long and is picturesque due to the mountains and the large wooded areas you will be walking through.

For Aaron Peterson, exploring the chattering Yaak River and wandering the forests surrounding it is no more complicated than clipping on cross-country skis outside his front door. Roaming this northwestern corner of Montana sometimes feels risky when the weather’s warm because of the grizzlies in one of the Lower 48’s wildest places. But on winter days, when bears are hibernating beneath fresh snowfall, they are not what gives Peterson spine-tingling chills. Instead, it’s the crystalline air and exhilarating calm.
Biden May Approve Logging an Old-Growth Forest, Heightening Climate Risks
If approved, the Trump-era project would be a reversal of Bidenâs stated commitment to preserve federal land and waters.

The Biden administration is a single regulatory leap away from green-lighting the logging of hundreds of acres of old-growth forest in Montana. If approved, the U.S. Forest Serviceâs âBlack Ram Projectâ would authorize commercial harvesting on 3,904 acres in the Kootenai National Forest, including the clear-cutting of at least 579 acres of trees that are hundreds of years old. On top of potentially violating the National Environmental Policy Act, carrying out the Trump-era project would undermine at least three major Biden administration commitments: tackling the climate crisis, preserving 30 percent of federal land and waters by 2030 and preventing future outbreaks of disease transmitted from animals (or zoonoses) like COVID-19.
