Celebrating the Rivers & Trails 50th Anniversary

#FindYourWay

On October 2, 1968, President Lyndon Johnson signed the National Trails and Wild & Scenic Rivers acts, establishing the two systems. Elements of the systems are stewarded by a variety of federal, state and local agencies and nonprofit organizations, including the National Park Service, Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S. Forest Service and Army Corps of Engineers. We are celebrating the 50th Anniversary of this historic achievement.

In celebration of the 50th anniversary of the National Trails and National Wild & Scenic Rivers systems, Niantic and the National Park Foundation are running a special campaign about exploring as many rivers and trails as possible. We’re going to try and collectively visit the thousands of trails across the U.S. and more than 12,000 miles of rivers protected by the Wild & Scenic Rivers System, and we need your help.
