This Thursday’s Pint Night features a group doing real work for trails we all use.

Beartooth Trails is based in Red Lodge, but if you’ve ever hiked in the Beartooths, chances are you’ve benefited from their efforts. They’re helping build and maintain a trail system that stretches across some of the wildest, most beautiful country in our region.

They’ll be in the shop from 5 to 8 to share what they’re working on and how you can get involved. Stop in, grab a drink, and say hi. It’s a good time to support good trails.

Want to know more? Here is how Beartooth Trails describe themselves..."Beartooth Trails is a nonprofit, volunteer-powered organization that advocates for connecting people to the outdoors, because we believe residents and visitors to Red Lodge should have access to adventures in every season. Originally formed in 2002 to operate the Red Lodge Nordic Center, our mission has expanded to year round operations. Our projects include grooming the West Fork Road for winter recreation, trail building and maintenance in partnership with the City of Red Lodge, the Beartooth Ranger District, and Red Lodge Mountain. We are also involved in active transportation projects around Red Lodge."
