Active Living

A MountainWise Tradition

We live in a region surrounded my majestic mountains, rushing rivers, and beautiful weather. Even though we enjoy this natural setting every day, many of us don’t have a safe place to be active. MountainWise wants to ensure that everyone has access to trails, sidewalks, bike lanes, and facilities. This includes working with interested organizations like schools, churches, and municipalities who might provide use of existing facilities for ACTIVE LIVING.
