Mission

The Truckee Trails Foundation (TTF) is working towards a system of trails and bikeways in and around Truckee, California that will connect people and places, reduce our community's dependence on automobiles, and improve our physical, social, and environmental health.

About

In 2019 TTF completed 30% design on the 22-mile unconstructed section of the proposed Pines to Mines Trail, which is now awaiting United States Forest Service (USFS) feedback. This project also involves working closely with project partners in western Nevada County (Bicyclists of Nevada County, Bear Yuba Land Trust, and Gold Country Trails Council).Over the summer of 2019, TTF made changes and additions to Trail A1 (Jackass Ridge Trail). Recognizing the popularity of this trail and the opportunity for improvement, the TTF and United States Forest Service (USFS) agreed there was an excellent opportunity to systemize the trail. Systemization legally requires that the trail meet current sustainability standards and avoid identified sensitive areas. TTF raised funds to conduct necessary resource studies, and worked with the USFS to ensure sensitive resources are protected. This project involved the adoption of 1.71 miles of existing user-created trail, and construction of an additional 2.0 miles of non-motorized singletrack trail, creating a trail loop system, all on public land. This project will provide a sustainable and long-lasting recreation opportunity for the public, while discouraging use of adjacent private land and avoiding sensitive cultural and natural resources. Work was conducted by TTF trail crew, USFS personnel, and volunteers at no cost to the public.Lower Carpenter Valley was recently purchased by the Truckee Donner Land Trust and is currently open to the public with their docent led hikes. In August of 2019 TTF's crew broke ground on a new 3 mile trail that will circumnavigate this stunning meadow. This project will continue during the summer of 2020. The non-motorized trail is perfect for a slow meander while you look for birds and view the wildflowers.Additionally, TTF provided general trail maintenance on about 150 miles of existing trails in the Truckee area.
