The Montana DNRC, Stillwater Unit, has received a request from Eagle Rock Road Users Association (RUA), Inc. to provide a private driveway access to three landowners. Those landowners include McDowell, Wobick and Eagle Rock Montana, LLC. This access would be in the form of a private driveway easement across State Trust Lands. The location of the proposed road would be near the north end of Whitefish Lake. Project objectives include: • Provide a 40-foot right of way for legal access to three adjacent landowners issued for the purpose of private, non-commercial access for single family residences. • Construct road infrastructure for DNRC, thus providing opportunities for future forest management. • Replace an existing gate on the East Smith Road and develop additional parking which would accommodate space for a larger parking area for a possible future Whitefish Trail trailhead.
