TrailArts Natural-Surface Trail Development: Planning, Construction, Management. Long Live Long Trails! Dave Dessel, President

Since 1998 TrailArts has assisted the public and private sectors with planning, construction, and management of shared-use trails that maximize user satisfaction while minimizing impacts to the surrounding environment. TrailArts has performed consulting, planning, and construction on over 400 miles of natural-surface shared-use hiking, mountain bike, motorized, and equestrian trails throughout the United States. Our clients include contractors, municipalities, county agencies, state agencies, non-profit organizations, private landowners, and federal agencies. Our mission is to promote and advocate the development of natural surface recreational trails that are cost-effective and sustainable, minimize human impacts to the environment, and provide enjoyable facilities for the trail user. We believe our reputation as a leader in the trail industry is due to this unwavering vision, our unique understanding of the needs of the trail user and land manager, and an appreciation and respect for the artistry of Mother Nature. We are proud supporting members of the Professional Trail Builders Association (PTBA), American Trails Organization, the International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA), the Colorado Off Highway Vehicle Coalition (COHVCO), and our great country of the United States of America (USA).

Light maintenance continues on on Buzzard Park Trail 519 in the Grand Mesa NF. We're busy cleaning and re-shaping drains and grade dips, re-grading numerous sections of tread to reduce excessive two-track side slopes, and of course touching up the creek crossings. A-couple miles done and a -couple more to come! U.S. Forest Service-Grand Mesa, Uncompahgre & Gunnison National Forests Colorado Parks and Wildlife Western Slope ATV Association
