Thanks again to the 80+ volunteers who joined us for a fun, productive, and wet National Trails Day! Our community is AMAZING!

'How trails are made': celebrating National Trails Day in Bozeman.

Drizzling rain and dark clouds covering Bozeman did little to deter approximately 80 volunteers who spent National Trails Day maintaining infrastructure at Gallatin County Regional Park on Saturday.

Volunteers, with rain jacket hoods pulled firmly over their heads and water-soaked gardening gloves on their hands, wielded shovels, rakes, compactors, and wheelbarrows. The event, hosted by Gallatin Valley Land Trust, celebrates local trail systems, recreation opportunities, and community, per Matt Parsons, GVLT trails director.
