Year-End Giving

Support Your Local Trails this Season

Give to our year-end campaign

Thank you for sharing the area trails with us this year.

On the hikes, runs, or mountain bike rides you enjoyed this year, did you notice the hundreds of downed trees that were removed from trails ranging from the Colorado Trail to Dry Fork, Hofheins, Engineer Mountain, Pass Trail and others in the area?

Did you appreciate the trailwork done in Horse Gulch, Overend, Dalla, Twin Buttes, the Colorado Trail, Engineer Mountain Trail, and Missionary Ridge, or did you enjoy the new trails built on Animas Mountain?

Maybe new trail signage helped you find your way, or you learned something through the stewardship and educational campaigns, social media messages, newsletter stories, and other information that makes our community aware of what’s going on in our surrounding trail networks.

Durango Trails tackled these and many other projects during the 2021 season, as it has every season for the last 30 years. But we can’t do this work alone; it takes great communities to build great trails.

Because of the current circumstances, your support is needed now more than ever, and we hope you will consider increasing your investment in what is arguably our community’s greatest resource by increasing your year-end gift. Doing so will help ensure Durango Trails has the funding needed to complete the many projects that are slated for 2022.

We know the last 19 months have been trying on many levels, and we hope you have found some solace spending time outdoors, enjoying the fresh air and beauty of our area.

Thank you for your continued support, and for understanding the connection between your enjoyment and love of Durango’s trails, and the hard work of Durango Trails.

Thank you to our 2021 volunteers!

Thank you for supporting Durango Trails, for respectfully using & sharing the trails, and for your part in making this such a special community.
