Assess conditions and identify priorities in order to maintain existing trails, trailhead facilities and access roads located on Plumas, Lassen and Tahoe National Forests.

Plan for the construction and maintenance of a world-class multiple-use trail system, connecting the northern Sierra communities of: Truckee, Loyalton, Sierraville, Sierra City, Downieville, Quincy, Graeagle, Portola, Taylorsville, Greenville, Jonesville, Chester, Westwood, Susanville and Reno NV. The main proposed route is being referred to as “The Lost Sierra Route”, paying homage to the region and the historic Gold Rush-era mail delivery route.

Identify areas within communities where trail access would create additional benefit. Areas such as schools, neighborhoods, campgrounds, parks, retail centers and trailheads (new and existing). Having these trail systems connected to “Main Street” is ideal, as it brings visitors into town for restaurants, accommodations and services, and allows convenient access to public lands for residents.

Identify unclassified National Forest roads and trails which may be decommissioned and restored to a natural condition.

Create new recreational opportunities, in collaboration with fuels management and watershed protection projects, that will spread high intensity use into underutilized areas of the National Forest

Build strategic alignments for Shared Stewardship and create employment, training and apprenticeships for disadvantaged adults and youth.

Bring partnerships and investment in public lands through the Outdoor Industry
