Environmental Assessment Completed

Forest Road 642 - Middle Fork Sixteen Mile Road (Middle Fork Flathead Road) Relocation

Custer Gallatin National Forest Gallatin, Montana Bozeman Ranger District

The proposal is to move a short section of Road 642 from private land onto national forest in the NE corner of Sec 16 and rejoin the original road location. This will improve the location and maintenance, move it away from the stream, avoid pvt land

Location

North of Flathead Pass in the north Bridger Mountains, before the Troy Creek trailhead.
