A HUGE shout-out is going out today to @pioneertit A HUGE shout-out is going out today to @pioneertitleagency Arizona, who is a huge supporter of the Arizona Trail Association! Thank you for loving the AZT! One thing that money goes toward, is the amazing #ArizonaTrail Finisher's Belt Buckle! If you've finished the 800-mile #AZT, it's our gift to you!
Congress is trying to sell our public land! NOW is Congress is trying to sell our public land! NOW is the time for you to reach out to your Senators and tell them our heritage is not for sale. Yesterday, Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) included language within the budget that mandates the sale of over 2 million acres of public lands in 11 states across the West, including Arizona! It also mandates more oil and gas leasing, including on the coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, expedites road construction through Gates of the Arctic National Park, and requires mass timber sales in national forests, and other bad news. Selling millions of acres of our public lands without a thorough public input process would be a huge loss to future generations of Americans, and kicks open the door to paying for whatever Congress and the Administration wants by selling our land to the highest bidder. This is not OK. Please call your Senators TODAY and tell them public lands are not for sale, and urge them to reject Senator Lee's proposal. If you live in Arizona, please call Senator Mark Kelly (202-224-2235) and Senator Ruben Gallego (202-224-4521). If you live outside Arizona, you can find the contact information for your Senators at www.congress.gov/members/find-your-member
#ArizonaTrail Supports Wildfire Prevention & Emerg #ArizonaTrail Supports Wildfire Prevention & Emergency Response In addition to being a recreational destination that attracts hikers, runners, mountain bikers and equestrians from around the world, the #ArizonaNationalScenicTrail (AZT) is a valuable resource for wildfire prevention, response and recovery. 🌵Fire Break Trails act as important fire breaks, often stopping the flames once they reach the trail as they run out of fuel. Some communities are building recreational trails around their towns to simultaneously increase fire breaks and provide recreational opportunities. ⚒️Fuels Reduction Arizona Trail Association (ATA) volunteers contribute tens of thousands of hours of labor each year to removing brush from the trail corridor -- reducing vegetation on the ground that fuels wildfires. 👨‍🚒Wildland Firefighter Access The AZT provides access to remote areas for wildland firefighters. A well-maintained trail makes it safer and faster for firefighters to respond to emergencies. 👋Trail User Reporting As a popular path throughout the state, Arizona Trail visitors are often the first to report wildfires, both natural and human-caused, reducing damage to landscapes, structures, watersheds and other important resources. 😎Public Education As a well-established nonprofit organization, the ATA provides immediate information to the general public about fire restrictions, wildfires near the trail, closures and detours, and much more through social media, website, eNewsletter and on-the-trail navigation apps. ✅Damage Assessments After the flames have subsided, ATA staff and stewards are often the first ones on the ground conducting wildfire damage assessments and mitigation plans to restore the trail and the landscape as quickly as possible. The ATA also pursues state, federal and private funding sources to hire contractors to repair the trail after wildfires. Your support of the ATA benefits landscapes, communities, Arizona's outdoor recreation economy, wildland firefighters, and so much more.
