Recovering Entiat Trails
In 2021, we were able to give the wildfire hotspot some extra attention thanks to our first ever backcountry pro crew.
Reviving the Pratt River
We're clearing the way on this alternate access point into the Alpine Lakes Wilderness.
Trails link people and wild places. They provide us with a place to reconnect with nature — and each other.
But every year, more are more trails are in danger of falling off the map.
Budgets for public lands continue to shrink, making it harder and harder to keep our backcountry trails open and accessible. Without the maintenance they need, Washington’s trails are slowly becoming lost.
Our Lost Trails Found campaign is working to save trails that are at-risk of disappearing completely — preserving access to our stunning backcountry for generations to come. Through your generous support, boots-on-the-ground volunteer trail maintenance, voices in Congress and innovative partnerships, we are putting trails back on the map.

Where We're Working
WTA has chosen three priority areas to focus our Lost Trails efforts and create a model for trails across the state. In addition to restoring our three priority areas, we have committed to improving 40 more backcountry trails that are at-risk of becoming lost.
