Continental Divide Trail needs your help

Tuesday, October 09, 2007

By Scott Fitzgerald

If you weren’t aware of the Continental Divide Trail (CDT) before, hopefully you took notice when our hometown hero Jay Petervary smashed the record for riding it this summer.     

The trail extends from the Canadian border to the Mexican border, covering approximately 2500 miles. The CDT includes the famous Monarch Crest, many sections of the Colorado Trail, well-known Steamboat Springs singletrack, important trails around Butte, Helena, Jackson Hole and much more.

The Forest Service is currently trying to limit or ban mountain bikes on this route.  Please take the time to write the USFS and let them know you want the CDT to remain open to cyclists. The deadline for comments is this Friday. The best way to get your comments in on time is by going to www.imba.com and clicking on “take action” for the CDT link.  It only takes 30 seconds to fill out the request and to have your message sent directly to the USFS from this site. Don’t put it off, do it today and help keep mountain biking alive and thriving!
