trail work parties

The trails we run and hike on would not exist without folks like us getting out and doing the volunteer work to build, maintain and repair them. Our parks just don't have the budgets and staffing to take care of the thousands of miles of trails we have here in Washington. Thankfully there are lots of opportunities for us to join a work party organized by one of the many organizations that step up to fill this need. And here at Rainshadow we are teaming up with some of these groups to offer trail work parties in many of the places where we have our events this year!
