Become a Trail Ambassador

Love being on the trail and connecting with people? Become a Trail Ambassador and help foster a welcoming, responsible trail culture across the Roaring Fork Valley.

This new stewardship program invites community members to serve as friendly, informed presences on some of our busiest routes — sharing trail etiquette, answering questions, and modeling sustainable recreation through positive, peer-to-peer engagement.

If you’re looking for a meaningful way to give back, deepen your relationship with public lands, and help protect the places that connect us all, this is your chance.

Applications are now open. Join us.
