Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks will host a scoping workshop in May to gather early public input on potential improvements and additions to Missouri Headwaters State Park. The workshop will be at the park’s picnic area on Saturday, May 20, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Visitors can provide their input on several development options dealing with the park’s overnight accommodations, day-use amenities, trails and interpretive signs, and a visitor center.  Public comments gathered at the workshop will help inform the creation of a draft development plan later this year. That plan will undergo additional public comment once it is drafted. This process comes after a master plan was developed for the park last year, with goals for guiding the development and use of park facilities; protecting important cultural, natural and scenic resources; and enhancing visitors’ overall experience. 

Missouri Headwaters State Park is about 5 miles northeast of Three Forks on Trident Road. For more information about the park, please visit fwp.mt.gov/stateparks/missouri-headwaters or call 406-285-3610.
