Yellowstone Seeking Comments on the Mist Creek Pass Trail Project

Yellowstone National Park is soliciting comments on a proposed project to complete routine trail work on portions of the Mist Creek Pass Trail. The project will focus on the area around Mist Creek Meadows in the Lamar River drainage.

The main intent of the project will be to harden sections of trail that are regularly wet and boggy by adding rock to the trail subsurface at strategic locations. Work will also focus on routine but essential erosion control. The project will be completed by National Park Service staff in partnership with the Montana Conservation Corps. The project will be funded through the Wyoming Department of State Parks and Cultural Resources Recreational Trails Program.

Comments may be hand-delivered during normal business hours to the mailroom in the park’s Administration Building in Mammoth Hot Springs, Wyoming, emailed to e-mail us , or mailed to: Bill Hopkins, Backcountry Trails Office, P.O. Box 168, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, 82190.

Comments will not be accepted by fax or in any other way than those specified above. All comments must be received by midnight MST on Friday, November 28, 2014.
