The
U.S. National
Forest Service Adopt-A-Trail program is critically important
to the 4-Wheeling community. It allows us to interact directly
with the Forest Service, giving a "face" to the 4-Wheeling
community that might otherwise go unnoticed. Maintaining our
presence in the forest ensures that we can continue to have
access to the wonderful trails and scenery that we all enjoy so
much.
Adopt-A-Trail gives us
the
opportunity to give back
to the environment that we enjoy so much, and allows us to help
ensure that the forest is available to ALL people and all
activities. It proves that we can responsibly enjoy our chosen
sport without irreversibly damaging the surrounding environment.

Removing
fallen trees in the spring is common. We also block off
unnecessary short-cuts.
