Trail Crew Fills Gaps Left by Forest Service | Spokane News
Description
When federal agencies cut staff, trails go neglected—until a nonprofit steps in. The Northern Rockies Trail Project, with just 17 employees, is clearing, packing, and building trails where the Forest Service can’t keep up. Funded by state and federal grants, and staffed by ex-Forest Service pros, they’ve already tackled over 1,200 miles this season. With plans to double their team next year, they’re not replacing the government—but keeping the outdoors accessible for hikers, bikers, and everyone who loves the wild.
