National Trails Day: Big Meadow Highway Crossing

June 7 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm

Celebrate National Trails Day – June 7th!

Join us on June 7th for National Trails Day as we come together to improve our trails! This year, we’ll be working on projects related to a highway crossing reroute at Big Meadow Trailhead. These projects will help us open the the new crossing which will offer a safer and more enjoyable trail user experience.

Trails don’t maintain themselves—it takes a community! In partnership with American Hiking Trails, we’re joining tens of thousands of hikers, bikers, paddlers, horseback riders, trail clubs, federal and local agencies, land trusts, and businesses to advocate for, maintain, and clean up public lands and trails.

Be part of the movement—lend a hand and make a difference!

We’ll start the day by shuttling to the Big Meadow Trailhead, where lunch (provided by TRTA) and our crew leaders will be waiting. After a quick overview of the day’s trail work, we’ll get our hands dirty and hit the trail together.

At 2:00 PM, we’ll head back to Divided Sky for a post-work celebration, featuring appetizers and drinks generously provided by our hosts.

Come ready to work, connect, and celebrate all things trail!

The fun doesn’t end with National Trails Day, join us June 8 for our Annual Meeting and Awards Ceremony taking place at Valhalla Tahoe 1:00pm – 3:00pm.
