Happy National Trails Day! 💚🌲

Today, we celebrate the unsung heroes of free outdoor recreation in our community - the trails! In a nationwide effort, we encourage outdoor enthusiasts like you to enjoy our community trail system, participate in organized stewardship projects, and take the pledge to leave trails better than you found them.

This year's Spring Cleanup resulted in 2X more garbage collected than last year! Thank you to our incredible group of over 100 volunteers and the sponsors and partners who made this day possible. We'll see you out on the trails (which are nice and clean by the way)!

What began as a bold idea over 20 years ago, the Casper Marathon has grown into Wyoming’s only true Boston Marathon-qualifier, putting Casper on the national running map.🏃‍➡️🏃‍➡️

The race draws participants from across the country, bringing runners, their families, and supporters to the heart of Wyoming. The trails play a vital role in making the Casper Marathon possible, with most of the course taking place along the trail system. Without this community asset, events like this simply couldn’t exist at the same scale or quality.

Do you know which trail is primarily used in the marathon?
Answer: River Trail

Monthly gifts add up over time and can help support a nonprofit (like us!) in funding maintenance, repairs, safety improvements, and planning future projects.

In short, our monthly donors are essential pieces to the trail system. Join our community of monthly supporters, choose the “monthly” option, and make your first donation today at https://bit.ly/3QH31pt

Friendly reminder to please stay on designated trails! When you veer off trail and take a shortcut, you create social trails that become increasingly used, which increases the degradation of the surrounding natural ground.

We work so hard to build and maintain beautiful (and sustainable) trails for our people! So, please help protect the natural environment and landscaping around the trails by staying on them.😌

For Dawn and Eric Easton, the trails aren’t just a place to run or ride; they’re a critical part of life in Casper. From early morning jogs to stacking up miles on the bike, the Eastons are among some of the most familiar faces on the Platte River Trails system. Their love for the outdoors goes far beyond personal use, even playing a role in bringing the Casper Marathon to life!

Thank you to everyone who attended the Spring Cleanup and showed how you love the trails as much as we do. 💚 Our volunteers and sponsors are the driving forces behind a successful cleanup (this spring and all season long!), and your support for local trails is evident in the hundreds of pounds of trash we collected in a single morning!

We're beyond grateful for this year's sponsors, including Holloman Corporation, Rocking K Properties, Enbridge, Keep Casper Beautiful, and KCWY News 13. Thank you to the The Curly Wolf Den, Fine Shave Ice for the snow cones!

We are SO ready for summer! ☀️
