Public buses and trains don’t usually extend into the outskirts of rural communities, if they stop in them at all. Microtransit helps more rural residents reach their local station, but it comes at a cost.

Anyone in Washington can travel hundreds of miles by bus without paying a cent. As gas prices and the cost of living climb, transit ridership is rising in rural counties with zero-fare programs.

Image: A public bus drives through a forest road in rural Washington, passing a small red building. Text: Notes from the field. Last year, I traveled from Seaview, Washington, all the way to Seattle using only public buses. Simply taking a Greyhound or Amtrak might have been easier, but I’ve always been curious how far local transit could take me. I was shocked to learn that not only was the trip possible, but it cost just $3.

The hardest part was actually getting to the bus station. The wheel on my heavy suitcase broke at the start of the walk from the lodge I’d rented, and the area was too rural for local cabs or ridesharing. Ultimately, a kind stranger in a red pickup truck gave me a ride to the stop.

The bus route took me past stunning coastal scenery I would have otherwise missed, and I enjoyed chatting with fellow passengers. Though Google Maps wasn’t much help (many of the routes had recently changed), the drivers were extremely accommodating. They even arranged a free microtransit ride in an SUV to help me make a connection.

It's all thanks to a growing network of free transit systems connecting rural communities across western Washington, with ridership far exceeding the national average. -Elyse Hauser

Image: Emily Senkosky rides a brown horse through a grassy meadow. Text: Postcard From Montana. When I got the opportunity to go out with a range rider last fall, I was ecstatic that it would be a woman. There are quite a few female range riders in Montana, but Sigrid Olson is the only one in the Blackfoot Valley.
We had a relatively uneventful ride to the summit on horseback. Near the ridgeline, a light dusting of snow coated the ground. Then, to our right, was a spattering of feline footprints. Olson guessed they belonged to a lynx.
As we rode higher, her horse started to protest, leaning off the trail and bucking. She dismounted and led her horse by the reins, instructing me to watch uphill. As I remained a sentinel, I saw swift movement in the low brush above us. This was the final warning. Olson decided it was best we head down the mountain.
Upon our return to the ridgeline, twenty minutes after we first passed, fresh feline pawprints marked the snow. The hair on the back of my neck stood up, knowing we had narrowly avoided what could have been a fatal encounter.
Upon safe return to the truck, I had a new appreciation and respect for Olson and range riders, understanding first-hand the risks that come with being a conservation cowgirl. -Emily Senkosky

The rapid development of once-wild spaces is spurring growing pains for people and animals across the globe. Montana’s Blackfoot Valley became a testbed for coexistence as grizzlies and wolves returned to their former territory among the ranchland, paving the way for the range rider to reemerge.
