The Trail Promise

We coordinate with staff, volunteers, interns, and other partners who do the hard work it takes to keep trails from disappearing from the remote corners of Southwest Oregon and Northwest California.

When we adopt a trail or trail section, it becomes part of our promise. That means we will maintain it no less than once every three years.

Check out our interactive map of the trails we maintain with current conditions.
