Need a gift for the trailrunners in your life (or for yourself)?

The 2013 Tribute to the Trails calendar features amazing photos of runners on local trails and dates for trail running events throughout the country. All proceeds from sales benefit Washington Trails Association, and, even better, the calendar comes with the chance of winning a race entry.

A project to support Washington's trails

Now in it's eighth year, the Tribute to the Trails Calendar Project is the brainchild of WTA member, photographer and runner, Glenn Tachiyama, and WTA's board president, Wendy Wheeler-Jacobs. Together, they produce the inspiring calendar to support WTA's work to protect and maintain trails.

Last year, the project raised more than $18,000 for WTA and trails. Glenn, Wendy, and all of you trail lovers out there, thank you!
