Welcome to the first in a series of sponsor spotlights. Fox Factory created Trail Trust to provide grants to organizations helping to preserve the places we love to play. The goal is to bring together diverse communities to build, maintain, and expand access to trails. OTTA met with Jackie Martin to learn about how Trail Trust was created, the program’s priorities, and the progress made during the first year.
Get to know: Paul Thomasberg
This year at the Watson Fire rehab trail stewardship event, we were lucky enough to have former racer, mountain bike hall of famer, trail builder Paul Thomasberg drop by for a day of building and learning. Paul was in the area to begin work on the Winter Rim reroute, and being the kinetic ball of energy and ideas that he is, he couldn’t resist a bonus day of trail work. We reached out to Paul to learn more about his history and get an update on his Winter Rim work.
Cog Wild Offering Supported Oregon Timber Trail Trips in 2019

Now the answer is yes! The Oregon Timber Trail Alliance has partnered with Cog Wild to offer guided and supported trips in the Deschutes and Fremont Tiers this summer.
