Stop the Blackfoot Clearwater
Stewardship Act

The MSA stands in opposition to the Blackfoot Clearwater Stewardship Act. We ask all members to contact Senators Tester and Daines and encourage them to vote against this piece of bad legislation. We are all for quality Wilderness areas, but until other issues get solved, we believe this legislation is not what Montanans want or need.
  • The Blackfoot Clearwater Land Grab (BCSA) will designate an additional 80,000 acres of wilderness and stop all uses except foot and horseback.
  • Every year due to the forest plans and new designations we lose access to recreate on our public lands.
  • 67% of Federal public lands in Montana are closed or restricted in some way for mechanized and motorized use.
  • Total available federally managed public land in Montana is 17,172,138 acres (according to Forest service and BLM data.)
  • Only 6% of the population use 11,295,509 acres, these lands are not managed and allowed to burn by policy.
  • 3,433,038 acres of Wilderness 6,290,437 of roadless area
  • 1,572,094 acres of RMAs and WSAs (Fraudulent Wilderness)
  • 94% of the population can only use 5,876,569 acres of that over 17 million acres.
  • In the Seeley Lake Ranger district there are over 1000 miles of hiking and equestrian trails but less than 1 mile of Mechanized use trails See a Pattern? This is a huge imbalance for outdoor recreationalists.
  • From a previous non-bias survey, 52% of Montanans oppose any additional wilderness or restrictions in Montana’s National Forests. Only 32% support additional Wilderness or restrictions. (https:tinyurl.com/ yx927pen)
  • The push for this additional wilderness is funded by out of state donors visit www.greendecoys.com
  • Call Senators Jon Tester and Steve Daines, let them know we have enough wilderness and to Stop the Blackfoot Clearwater Land Grab (BCSA).
