Five years ago, the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) received permanent funding through the Great American Outdoors Act. Now the Administration is trying to rollback this great conservation & recreation achievement. We must #SaveLWCF funding to protect our trails and public lands!

As trail stewards and outdoor advocates, we see firsthand how few trails are truly built for everyone.
The #TrailsForAll Act (H.915/S.548) would fund inclusive trail design in MA—and set a model for others. 📣 Ask your rep to support it: p2a.co/cryo2vu

At this year’s Dandelion Dig Day at AMC’s Lakes of the Clouds, 24 volunteers removed 65 pounds of invasive dandelions from fragile alpine habitat! 🌼

Why it matters: dandelions outcompete rare native plants and disrupt alpine biodiversity—often spread by hikers’ boots.
