Trail Steward Program
The trails don’t maintain themselves—and they don’t stay this fun by accident.
Every berm, cleared corner, and rideable line exists because someone put in the work. As a fully volunteer-run network, keeping trails safe, sustainable, and riding well takes consistent effort—and that’s where the community comes in.
To help support ongoing maintenance and improve the trail network, Ride NoCo is launching a Trail Stewards Program.
This program is designed for riders who want to take a more active role in caring for the trails they love. Whether you have a favorite trail you ride often, or you can’t always make scheduled trail days but still want to contribute, becoming a Trail Steward is a flexible and impactful way to get involved.
What Trail Stewards Do
Trail Stewards help keep specific trails in good condition throughout the season. Responsibilities may include:
Leaf blowing when needed
Keeping the trail corridor clear of branches and debris
Maintaining berms by removing loose material
Checking and clearing drainage features
Identifying and reporting trail issues
Supporting or helping lead trail days when available
