WSTF WSER Joint Trail Work Statement

Dear Western States Trail stakeholders,

During the past several weeks representatives from the Western States Trail Foundation and the Western States 100-Mile Run Foundation have met regarding the future of the Western States Trail.  Both organizations have agreed to allocate resources to work together in maintaining the trail, in preserving its historic nature and in ensuring its accessibility to the public.  Our long-term goal is to develop a collaborative, strategic vision for future efforts between our organizations in all of these key areas.  Both organizations will do this while working in collaboration and cooperation with the private land owners and other interested organizations and foundations as well as local, state and federal agencies that are charged with managing this precious resource.

We plan regularly updating all Western States stakeholders on our progress in this joint trail agreement.

Sincerely,

Kathie D. Perry
President
Western States Trail Foundation

John Trent
President
Western States 100-Mile Endurance Run Foundation

2013 Trail Work Days

Trail Volunteers are Essential! Volunteering on the trail is rewarding and fun. And, for those who are entered in the 2013 WSER and are within driving distance of the WS Trail, our scheduled work projects are the perfect way to satisfy the Run’s volunteer service requirement!

The 2013 trail work days have been set.

February 2, 2013 – Green Gate to Hwy 49
March 23, 2013 – El Dorado/Volcano Canyons
April 20, 2013
May 18, 2013  Moved to June 1, 2013.
June 21-22, 2013

At the first project on Feb 2 we’ll improve trail tread, trim vegetation, remove fallen trees, and ensure adequate drainage on the Green Gate to 49 Crossing section of the trail. See our 2013 Trail Work Opportunities page to sign up and to get further details.
