We are passionate about trails. Every year 500 hours of volunteer work clear and maintain nearly 100 miles of trail around the Bitterroot Valley.
Mountain Biking in the Bitterroot
Western Montana and the Bitterroot Valley have hundreds of miles of single track, and here at Bitterroot Backcountry Cyclists we are working on building new trails and keeping the existing trails cleared, maintained, and open. Our goal is to get out ensure everyone has a chance to ride whether close to home of deep in the wilds.
Realizing how privileged we are to live and play here, we also understand that the trails need love and maintenance. We believe it's our duty to be good stewards and understand that all trail use has an impact. It is our goal to leave the trails a little better off after each ride.
In 2022 we received a grant to build trails on the south of Como. Those trails are now the 18 miles of flow that compromise the increasingly popular Bunkhouse Trail System.
With the completion of the Bunkhouse Trail System, we have turned our attention to the north side of Lake Como. Currently there are several social trails, and working with the Bitterroot National Forest we will integrate them into the trail registry. For this to happen we will need your help. Several of the trails need improvements and re-routes to ensure that they are sustainable and up to Forest Service Standards. The current climate for grants is challenging and we will need your help to raise the $45,000 it will take to build and upgrade the new sections of trail.
