Want to connect with your western Montana open lands? Join us for events, workshops, and volunteering opportunities! This list will be updated throughout the year:
Dig into trails with us! During this workday, we'll be sprucing up the universal trails at the Rock Creek Confluence, near Clinton. We'll be removing grass along trail edges, smoothing gravel, and other maintenance tasks.
Snacks and drinks will be provided, and carpooling is available with prior arrangement. Volunteers should wear sturdy shoes and weather-appropriate clothing, and bring a hat, gloves, and sunscreen. Five Valleys will provide tools. Sign up to volunteer here!
Looking to get up close and personal with our feathered friends? Look no further than our Rock Creek Confluence! We've partnered with the University of Montana's Bird Ecology Lab to have a bird banding station on the east side of the Confluence for an 11th year of science, community engagement and fun. Banding days are open to the public - no RSVP required! Learn more and get directions.
