SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. — The Tahoe Area Mountain Biking Association (TAMBA), Heavenly  Mountain Resort, and the Tahoe Rim Trail Association (TRTA) partnered with Lake Tahoe Pride to host the third annual Tahoe Pride Trail Work Day on Saturday, September 20.  Twenty volunteers came together to celebrate community, inclusivity, and stewardship of Tahoe’s trails.

The event, held in partnership with the U.S. Forest Service, focused on restoring a historic trail within Heavenly Resort. This trail provides stunning views of Lake Tahoe and improves connectivity to an underutilized system of trails on the mountain. Thanks to the efforts of volunteers, the trail is once again a beautiful and welcoming place to explore.

“TAMBA believes outdoor recreation and trails should be accessible to all people, free from prejudice,” said Kristine Koran, Trails Director, TAMBA. “We are grateful to our partners and volunteers for working together to celebrate inclusivity and support the trails we all love.”
