Tell the BLM to Keep Rollercoaster Trail Technically Challenging for Off-Roaders
We previously informed you of the North Idaho Trailblazers fight and recent win to keep one of the most popular trails in northern Idaho, the West Fork Pink Creek Trail, open.

We’re thrilled to see BLM offering an alternative to keep and maintain this section— but we need your voice to ensure this alternative is chosen. We’ve made it very easy to add your comments with the form below. Comments are due August 13th! Details and form below.
