National Public Lands Day at Milltown State Park

Milltown State Park
National Public Lands Day at Milltown State Park Description:
Montana's newest state park is in need of some TLC. The 0.5-mile Floodplain Trail has almost vanished from the landscape, and we need to bring it back to life! Join Montana State Parks AmeriCorps members for some beautiful days alongside the Clark Fork River, taking in the views and digging in the dirt! Expect to use hand tools to remove vegetation and turn up the soil. No experience is necessary; we'll teach you everything you need to know. Please bring closed-toe shoes, comfortable clothing, a water bottle, and a sack lunch. This trail building event will occur weekly on Saturdays in September and October--please check the dates in this event. Join us for as many sessions as you'd like, and stay as long as you'd like. We will typically meet at the Milltown State Park Overlook on Saturday's at 10am. If you would like to join us, but don't want to work on the trail, we have plenty of noxious weed rosettes that need to be pulled! For more information please email Olivia.Hollis@mt.gov or call (406) 542-5533.
