We work closely with the Park Service and assist park staff by providing critically needed volunteer power to build new trails and maintain over 20 miles of existing trails.

The Wilderness Stewardship Division has partnered with Harpers Ferry Center and film students at American University to develop a webisode series called America's Wilderness. The collection of 3-5 minute webisodes take place in different wilderness parks across the country, featuring stories that capture an array of experiences shared between people and wilderness, from first time overnight camping trips to trail running and photography.
