We’re in court fighting for the public’s right to access the Crazy Mountains in Montana. Public trails leading to the Crazies are currently obstructed by unofficial locked gates, and official Forest Service signage has even been removed. The Forest Service is unwilling to reopen the trails, forcing us into the courtroom. Help WELC, Friends of the Crazy Mountains, Enhancing Montana’s Wildlife and Habitat, Skyline Sportsmen’s Alliance, and Backcountry Hunters & Anglers reopen these trails by donating to our legal fund.
