The Crystal Cedar Project includes a proposed 25 miles of recreational trails about a mile north of Columbia Falls, just west of North Fork Road. It also proposes to conduct 3,700 acres of vegetation management to reduce fuels close to neighborhoods in the wildland-urban interface, including 2,500 acres of timber harvest, the majority of which has taken place.

Under the guidance of FAMB’s Executive Director (ED), the Programs & Events Coordinator will help plan, promote, and manage FAMB programs and events as well as assist with fundraising and other administrative tasks that may not be listed below.

A number of trail projects in Northwest Montana are set to receive a shot of funding through the federal Recreational Trails Program.

The program provides funding for trail and trail-related projects across the state, and is administered by Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks. For 2022, about 32 projects will divvy up $1.5 million in awards.

In Northwest Montana the largest award was given to Flathead Land Trust.
