Supplemental Narrative

Additional Explanations

Form 990, Page 2, Part III, Line 4D

The forest trails alliance accomplishes its mission by three means: 1. By providing educational experiences-our apprenticship and training program, our volunteer program, regional trail conferences including teaching workshops on sustainable trail construction methods, and collaborations with other organizations. 2. By developing resources - ie, investing in equipment, raising funds for trail expenses, and creating partnerships. 3. By developing trails-specifically, in 2015 we built trails and trained new crew members both locally and on trails in napa county, and did continuing work on design, planning and construction of scotts flat and mexican mine trail projects, local trail advocacy, and continued development of the forest city recreational destination area. We also opened our new headquarters and community trail center in nevada city, which we continue to develop in 2016. Finally, our team won a loarge california rtp grant for developing 16 miles of new trail at scotts flat lake including over 30 small artisan bridges.
