Backcountry Trail Program Design
We map trail corridors across varied terrain and grade each section for drainage, sustainable use and safety, balancing sightlines with the natural line of the land. Our team sets tread specifications for climbing turns, outslope, creek crossings and approach grades, then adds the closures, reroutes and signage that protect fragile alpine ground. Every route leaves the drawing board with a full construction sequence, an annual maintenance calendar, a volunteer and crew work plan, and a documented safety review that covers weather windows, hazards and emergency response from trailhead to ridgeline.
