Celebration for High Trails Land Acquisition

After five years of hard work, we reached our target: 1,108 acres of foothills land right outside Dillon, for public access into perpetuity.

Since 2014, BTC has looked for funding and purchased the High Trails land one parcel at a time. As the land was acquired, BTC improved the trailhead, developed trails, and installed signage and benches. Today, over 10 miles of well-marked trails offer walking, hiking, biking, and riding opportunities. 

The future looks bright with more room for trails and possibly a second trailhead. Stay tuned!!!


Raise a glass with us at the Beaverhead Brewery on September 21st - 5:30 pm to cheers for trails and public spaces! No-host celebration party, we will provide some finger food.

This amazing accomplishment would not have been possible without the great support BTC receives from Montana Fish and Wildlife Conservation Trust, Tim Speyer, Steele-Reese Foundation, the Baltoro Trust, the Kendeda Foundation, the Erb Family, Beaverhead County High School, Montana Youth Challenge, BLM, Beaverhead-Dearlodge Forest Service, University of Montana Western, our Sponsor An Acre participants, and all our members!
