Abstract

"Cover Story" piece on a proposal by the Western Mountains Foundation (WMF) to cut a 12-mile groomed cross-country ski trail through the Bigelow Preserve. A new bill, proposed bystate representative Monica McGlocklin, D-Embden, on behalf of WMF, seeks to clarify if machine grooming of ski trails is allowed within the preserve. The suggested changes to the Bigelow Preserve Act, passed in 1976, have conservationists and local residents concerned about opening up this undeveloped wilderness.
