How Your Membership Supports Our Trail System
Emphasis on Good Stewardship
Enrich your adventures on public lands with a solid understanding about the importance and benefits of being good stewards of our public lands and trails.
Protects Individual Rights To Ride Trails
The larger our body of members, the stronger is our collective voice that can protect individual rights to enjoy the trail systems on nearby public lands.
Share the Importance of membership
Talk to friends and family to let them know the value and importance of supporting membership to preserve our local trail system with access for all.
Trail Ranger Program
An incentive program that encourages member participation in trail cleanup and maintenance through a contract by the State of Idaho – Nez Perce National Forest and Clearwater National Forest.
Partnerships With Public Agencies
Working with partners in our local communities means collaboration with the Forest Service, the Blue Ribbon Coalition, Idaho Parks and Recreation and other public agencies.
Open More Miles of Trails
Annually, across the Nezperce-Clearwater National Forest, our volunteer and partnership efforts are in place to help keep trails open for everyone.
