The National Forest Foundation will DOUBLE all gifts made to WTA's Cape Horn Trail project by midnight tonight, September 15. They will match your gift, dollar-for-dollar, up to our $13,000 goal.

So far, nearly 125 generous WTA members and donors, along with the American Hiking Society and Friends of the Columbia Gorge, have contributed $11,113 to the project. Time is running out to raise the final $1,887.

As our Cape Horn volunteers will attest, the Cape Horn Trail is on its way to becoming a classic Columbia River Gorge hike. Over the last year, volunteers have been working to improve the safety of trail and protect sensitive wildlife habitat.

You can make a gift to WTA's Cape Horn Trail project to help us put the finishing touches on the new bridge and complete our first phase of work at Cape Horn.

Just click here and give as generously as you can. Your gift will be matched, dollar-for-dollar, until midnight tonight.
