A few words from Sitka Trail Works:
We were devastated to learn that the dedicated public servants of the Sitka Ranger District trail and cabin crews were all summarily terminated in recent federal employee cuts. Sitka lost five out of five field crew. As colleagues and friends, we knew we had to do something.
Things are changing daily as the agencies address legal challenges to the terminations, but no one is confident that the crew will be fully reinstated and able to function normally this season. Our goal remains the same, to serve our community by preserving public access as best we can.
Sitka is a small island community in Southeast Alaska accessible only by plane and boat and completely encompassed by the nation’s largest national forest, the Tongass. Many residents rely on harvesting fish, plants, and wild game off trails in the National Forest to offset the high cost of groceries, which must be flown or barged in. Our tight-knit community needs this crew to maintain access to public lands.
Sitka Trail Works, a community nonprofit focused on public land stewardship, is uniquely positioned to lend a hand in this moment. The organization was founded in 1997 to re-employ displaced workers when the pulp mill and largest local employer closed. We’re ready to invest in job creation again, but we need your help.
