Help enhance the hiking experience for everyone by becoming a Trail Adopter. We can help you get started on basic maintenance of a trail or shelter. Whether you want to volunteer on your own, with your family, or with your outing group, maintaining a section of the Long Trail, side trail, Vermont AT, or a GMC shelter is a great way to give back to the Green Mountains. Contact us to learn more about the program or to sign up as a trail or shelter adopter.
