Regardless where you live in the world, we all enjoy our sport on public lands. \\xa0In the U.S.A., we have over 640 million acres (259 million hectares) of public lands. \\xa0These lands are managed for us by many different federal agencies. \\xa0Quietly, there are deals being made that will transfer this management from the federal to the state level. \\xa0WHY DOES THIS MATTER?

Ultrarunner, Emily Peterson joins The Nation to help us

  • understand what and how this is going on,
  • why we should care,
  • where we can get more information and
  • how we can make our voices heard and
  • how we can keep these lands available to our community

Regardless of where you live, we need to help protect and preserve our outdoor trails. \\xa0Become informed and take action.
