Hike-a-thon 2008 is now over and we have raised $1600 for Washington Trails. Just to let you know what your dollars can accomplish, WTA sent me a breakdown of how they use the money.
$25-$99 Can provide treats for a team of volunteers
$100-$249 Can Outfit a crew in hardhats
$250-$499 WTA can purchase 5 or more new trail tools
$500-$749 WTA can lead 1 annual maintenance trip on a popular trail
$750-$999 WTA can lead two rehabilitation work parties
$1,000+ WTA can restore 1 mile (or more) of backcountry trail
Last year Ryan participated in two work parties restoring trails in the backcountry. You can read about his adventures here:
