More and more people, like us, are drawn to the call of the wild. However, this growing enthusiasm has brought challenges such as trash, new social trails, abandoned dog waste, and degradation that takes 7+ years to restore; all chipping away at the natural character of wilderness and the experience it offers.

While outdoor spaces are our collective home, a decrease in federal funding for land management and increased reliance on nonprofits to fill the gaps have led to access restrictions—and this is only the beginning.

Concerned about the increase in limited access to our public lands?

Wholeheartedly, we have a choice: accept it or do something about it. We can all play a part.
