This project includes thinning trees 6-inches in diameter and smaller, and removal of all beetle-infested trees in order to benefit larger ponderosa pine trees, larch and aspen. Additionally, the project proposes construction of an interpretive trail on the south side of the restored Clark Fork River floodplain, which would connect to the Overlook and continue west to the Bandmann Flats area. Trail construction would include interpretive signage, an informational kiosk, and a vault latrine at the Overlook. The proposed action would enhance public safety, forest aesthetics, and wildlife habitat, and increase recreational opportunities for park visitors.
