We're Speaking Up. Will You Join Us?
Join WWRC & Evergreen For a Day on the Hill to Support Trails
New Year, New Trails, New Decade, New Records
Unwavering rider support launches Evergreen into a new decade of trail development.
Since opening in 2010, Duthie Hill Park in Issaquah has become the capstone of the greater Seattle mountain bike scene.
More exercise. Save money. Lose weight.
These banal goals always bubble to the surface of January conversations.
Evergreen is building its reserves to build another 40 miles of trail in 2020.
Did you know that, on average, it costs about $20 per foot to build trails? And did you know that on average, Evergreen supporters statewide invest about $80 into trails per year through donations? Do the math… that’s a bargain for what riders get! But it’s not enough to cover all costs.
Time spent on a mountain bike is time well spent.
And if you’ve been fortunate enough to spend any time riding in Washington recently, you know that we have a lot to be thankful for.
An ever-expanding number of premium trails across our state is just scratching the surface of what we’re grateful for here at Evergreen. When you dig deeper into Washington’s riding scene, you’ll find a vast community filled with dedicated volunteers, trail builders, coaches, instructors, sponsors, local business owners and land managers.
The ecosystem of mountain biking is alive and well in Washington and YOU are an important part of it. For that, we’re thankful.
Read on to see what else Evergreen’s full-time crew is thankful for. Happy Thanksgiving!
