Volume 4, Issue 1 continues our mission to inspire, inform, and connect trail builders around the world around the common goal of building, maintaining, and advocating for more trails. What started as an idea to create a voice for trail builders has grown into something much larger: a global community of volunteers, professional builders, advocates, riders, nonprofit organizations, and industry leaders who believe trails matter.

There’s something happening right now in the trail world.

You can feel it.

It shows up in the stories that land in my inbox. In the DMs from readers. In the quiet momentum building in places most people would never think to look.

Different places. Same thread.

And in putting together Volume 4, Issue 1 of Trail Builder Magazine, that thread became impossible to ignore.
