We here at Trails Utah hope you are having a wonderful holiday season and that the new year brings good things to you and your loved ones.

We love engaging with our communities – meeting new people, listening to their ideas, and sharing what Trails Utah is all about. One way we do this is by participating in events. And conferences are wonderful opportunities to do the same with our cohorts in the trails community – federal, state and local entities and non-profits with similar goals.
