Southwest Montana’s Madison and Gallatin mountain ranges are worth protecting.

The Greater Yellowstone Conservation and Recreation Act will safeguard these mountains and the resources, activities, and freedom they provide. It will:

Safeguard Clean Water.

Protecting these mountains will protect the rivers and streams that provide us all with cold, clean, and healthy drinking water.

Protect Outdoor Recreation.

Hunting. Fishing. Mountain biking. Hiking. Dirt biking. Preserving these mountains will protect our freedom to recreate.

Support Iconic Wildlife.

Safeguarding this special place will ensure grizzly bears, elk, osprey, cutthroat trout, and more can keep thriving here.

Montana is changing. It’s time to act.

The Madison and Gallatin mountain ranges border some of the fastest-growing communities in the state. While the ranges have some protections under the current Forest Service management plan, these protections are not permanent.

A realistic solution. The Greater Yellowstone Conservation and Recreation Act.

The Greater Yellowstone Conservation and Recreation Act is proposed legislation that will make sure that rivers and creeks will keep flowing clear and cold, wildlife will have room to roam, and the people who come after us will love this place as much as we do.
