Area trail projects selected for federal funding

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.
