Hiking Difficulty:

Moderate: A hike of about 8 miles with minimal elevation gain brings you to your camp along the Two Medicine River.

Work Difficulty:

Difficult: Crosscut use for clearing trials #136 and #137, and frequently lifting dead trees off the trail. Trail #136 hasn’t been cleared in some time, so expect heavy clearing work. As time allows, there will be frequent bending over using loppers and handsaws to brush out the trail.

Project Description

The Glacier-Two Medicine Alliance and BMWF are teaming up to bring some much needed love to an overgrown trail in the Badger-Two Medicine. Your crew will be using crosscut and hand saws to work on clearing the neglected trail #136. Once cleared, your crew will work with loppers and hand saws to brush out the trail, making it more accessible to public users. Enjoy a day off mid-week to explore this beautiful area, relax and recharge. BMWF will provide all food, tools and group gear.

This trip is sponsored by Glacier-Two Medicine Alliance. The Glacier-Two Medicine Alliance is excited to share the Badger-Two Medicine with people new to the area! A staff member will be joining the trip and hosting a campfire chat to share what their organization does. Glacier-Two Medicine Alliance works to protect and steward the lands, water, and wildlife of the Badger-Two Medicine, Glacier National Park and surrounding areas of Montana.

Cancellation Policy

It is very important to know that you are expected to commit to the project once you sign up. All of our projects take a lot of time and effort to organize and we want to make sure that we have full trips so that we can complete the project as outlined by our Forest Service partners. Please do not sign up for a trip unless you are committed to doing it.

We do, of course, understand that things happen and circumstances change, so if you must cancel, please do so as soon as possible. Cancellations made less than 45 days before the trip and no-shows will forfeit their project registration deposit as a cancellation fee. 

While uncommon, BMWF may find it necessary to cancel a project due to low volunteer sign-ups or safety reasons (i.e. wildfires), but will contact volunteers as soon as possible and typically no later than two weeks before the project start date.  For this reason we strongly recommend volunteers purchase trip insurance when making airline reservations or other travel arrangements.

To see how many spots are available click the SIGN UP button below. The second page will tell you when there are fewer than 4 spots remaining on a trip.

We encourage you to join the waitlist if a trip is full – we often have openings for these spots throughout the summer!
