MISSOULA, Mont. - Rumors are swirling in Western Montana about the potential sale of Marshall Mountain, a place where hundreds of Montanans go to bike, hike and ski throughout the year.
A portion of Marshall Mountain property was recently listed for sale and is under contract. Concerns are now growing among locals about potentially losing access to some of the area s trails.
According to the Missoulian, the Montana Back Country Alliance and the Montana Bike Association are hoping for another potential buyer who wants to keep the land open to the public, like the current owners have for city-run activities and recreationalists for the past decade.
