In mid-April of this year, we excitedly (however cautiously) kicked off our full slate of 2025 Volunteer Adventures, despite having confirmed only 85% of the necessary funding. Unprecedented times call for new precedents so, BMWF is launching a first-ever Spring fundraising campaign to help us close the gap in Program funding for the upcoming field season.

We love our volunteers! Each year we’re thrilled to recognize a couple of the hardworking folks who go above and beyond for the Bob.

I wanted to share some photos from our Bar Creek project when we stayed at the Danaher cabin. This trip was amazing, it had a long approach and ever changing scenery as we moved through the Scapegoat into the Bob Marshall Wilderness to ultimately find the Danaher basin.
