Thank you to all those who attended the Lolo Luau Backcountry Festival last weekend!
Our inaugural backcountry festival was a huge success – burgers, beverages, and bluebird skies until 3 PM! 17 people participated in the skin race, with Sean winning the men’s division and Raina winning the women’s. Thanks for coming out and showing how much Lolo Pass means to us non-motorized winter recreationists. It was especially great to see some new faces.
MBA also wants to give a huge thanks to The Trailhead and Pipestone Mountaineering for donating some great prizes, and for all of their support this season. When you shop, please remember to shop locally!
Be on the lookout for another Lolo Luau next year!
Montana Backcountry Alliance was formed in 2005 to build an organized community advocating for traditional, human-powered winter recreation. We have commented as a group and individually on forest service management plans, held ski movie premiers, and helped conduct citizen monitoring projects. We intend to build on our success and further strengthen the traditional winter recreation community by advocating for specific non-motorized areas with reasonable access for human-powered recreationists. The motorized lobby is powerful, organized, and well-funded. But we are motivated and dedicated to establishing a strong voice in this important debate. We are also hopelessly addicted to skiing and riding, and will be busy enjoying the wonderful opportunities Montana offers in the winter. Get out and enjoy them too!
