Previews our "Celebrating the Swan Range!" Photo Exhibit, reports on two important decisions securing portions of the Swan Range from motorcycle and snowmobile intrusions, and contrasts Tester's Wildlands Logging Bill with the Northern Rockies Ecosystem Protection Act!
Includes a chronology of our 25 years of accomplishments, the 3 guiding principles that bind them all together, and several ways you can join us in celebrating our 25th Anniversary!"
We discuss the art of Receiving Humbly and Giving Generously by firstly providing the late Clif Merritt's recounting of his success in leading a 15-year effort to get Jewel Basin designated a Hiking Area. We then recap our efforts over the past 24 years to protect and secure Wilderness designation for Jewel Basin and other equally deserving portions of the Swan Range and provide several ways folks can help support our work, including by giving Gift Memberships to Swan View Coalition!
As we announce our annual membership meeting for November 9, Swan View takes a look at how we can all pull together during even economic hard times to remain generous in our protection of people, water, fish and wildlife. Positive local examples of cooperation between private, county, state and federal entities are presented, along with an opportunity for donors to automatically double their donation via a generous matching grant from Cinnabar Foundation.
Our lawsuits continue to help protect old-growth forests and wildlife habitat security, with a federal judge recently banning late-spring snowmobiling on the Flathead National Forest. Make the "Swan Trek Bet," a fun way to help support our work while staying fit and learning more about the natural and cultural history of the Swan Range.
Special Issue and Call to Action: Securing Quiet Habitat for Fish, Wildlife, and Humans! This issue provides a primer on our efforts to reduced the number of roads and motor vehicles on the Flathead National Forest. It then asks you to write a short email or letter to help our efforts securing quiet habitat for fish, wildlife and humans.
Almost 25 years ago, Swan View Coalition formed as a conservation nonprofit to put an end to the kind of destructive nonsense pictured below. As we approach our 25th anniversary, we continue the battle and prepare for the next 25 years.
