The Trails Preservation Alliance Trail Crew is the heartbeat of our on-the-ground efforts to protect and preserve motorized access on public lands. From clearing downfall and repairing erosion to signing routes and restoring sustainable trail systems, our dedicated crew works tirelessly alongside volunteers, land managers, and local clubs to keep trails open, safe, and responsibly maintained. Every project strengthens not only the trail itself, but the future of access for riders, families, and outdoor enthusiasts who depend on these routes. This is where advocacy turns into action—one shovel, one saw, and one mile at a time.

Each year, the TPA Trail Crew completes 16–18 multi-day hitches across the national forests of Colorado and Utah, putting in long hours and hard work where it matters most. These hitches place the crew deep in the backcountry tackling critical maintenance projects—from clearing storm damage and restoring neglected routes to improving drainage and reinforcing sustainable trail design. By consistently showing up across two states and a wide range of forest systems, the Trail Crew plays a vital role in keeping key motorized routes open, functional, and defensible for future generations of trail users

Our Trail Crew provides professional, reliable, boots-on-the-ground trail maintenance and construction support for motorized trail systems on public lands, filling in critical gaps for federal land managers and local trail organizations. But we can’t do this WITHOUT YOUR HELP! Would you please consider becoming a Trail Crew Supporter by funding this IMPORTANT work. Not only will you be supporting the ongoing trail work, but you will receive a thank you gift (see levels below for gifts included) for joining the support team and a monthly email detailing information on each hitch with photos and videos of your money at work! You can support with a one-time gift, or if you are able, a reoccuring monthly gift at your chosen level would GREATLY help the work continue.
