We have to get away from looking at [trail] maintenance as a ‘duty’ and as ‘work,’ and start selling it as a fun sport separate from hiking with its own types of equipment, styles, methods, approaches, rewards, etc. Why is the maintainer looking up to the hiker? Why is the greater dream to walk 2000 miles and not to maintain the perfect 5-mile section? —JOHN SCHOEN |

The Trails committee puts together a schedule of maintenance trips each year.
We do regular, monthly trips on the Ridgeline Trails and Spencer Butte
with the city of Eugene Parks & Open Spaces. Read more about it here.
And we do litter pick up hikes along the Ridgeline Trails system. We also
do trail maintenance trips in the National Forests and Wilderness areas.
If you have a favorite trail that you think needs a bit of work, call or email Matthew Bell (503-884-8829, trails@obsidians.org) and we’ll put you to work on it. Read Reports of previous Trails trips. |
