The Whitefish Trail
Journalists who report on outdoor recreation have a great story 
to report on in the new Whitefish Trail, which officially opens on July 17, providing twelve miles of new trail for non-motorized public use in the Lion Mountain, Skyles Lake, and Lupfer Road areas.
The story ultimately is about a diverse group of individuals, city, state, and federal entities working together for a common goal which sets a successful example for other communities around Montana at the West.
The Whitefish Trail is a regional, multi-partner project to develop a 55-mile recreational trail system looping around Whitefish Lake through state, federal and private lands, creating a regional amenity that is unique in western Montana. With construction slated over the next five years, The Whitefish Trail will provide a high-quality recreational experience that links trail systems in the City of Whitefish and at Whitefish Mountain Resort with the Flathead National Forest, Department of Natural Resources and Conservation (DNRC), and multiple private ownerships.
Check the press release section for all the details and history of the project and contact Brian Schott to set up interviews or to arrange for some guided time on the new trail.
