FOR ROAD BIDS
Forest Supervisor Is Getting
Ready to Take Up Highway
Improvement.
W. B. Wiiley, supervisor of Jefferson i
i national forest* announced yesterday aft- j
ernoon that bids for the Belt creek and ;
Sheep creek road projects were^to he j
advertised on or about January 15.
Considerable publicity was given to t
these proposed roads last year until war ;
conditions made it advisable to post- '■
pone the construction until a later time. |
It will be remembered that the B(lt
| creek road, which is about 18 miles i i
length and extends from the north ena
I of the King's hill road to Monarch, was
considered a certainty last year and
would have been built if it were not for
the war.
Bids were submitted for the Hheep
creek road, but as all were considered
too high, the matter was dropped.
Both of these roads are on the Park
to-Park highway and their completion
will mean a clear trail from Yellowstone
to Glacier, as these are the only two
dark spots on an otherwise w T ell-kept-up
highway.
Since the government provides oO per
cent of the funds necessary for the com
pletion of the roads, and since part of the ,
Sheep creek project lies in Meagher j
county, it will leave $80,000 to be pro- j
vided by Cascade county.
Practically all the right-of-way deeds
of the lands traversed by the roads have
been executed at the present time ex
cept a very few. covering mining claim
lands.
