Subject: Re: [OBRA Chat] Suggestions for a cycling-friendly donation (Gorgefires)
I should mention that two of the three mountain bike trail systems impacted the fires (Gorge Trail 400 and Larch Mountain) are not usually covered by NWTA nor HRATS. They are managed by the State of Oregon and will be rebuilt using the same volunteer pool and design concepts as other hiking trails in the Gorge. HRATS has been providing representatives at those meetings, with a focus on coordinating efforts along the boundary of state and county land (for Post Canyon). I am with NWTA, not HRATS, so my knowledge is from talking with their members.

HRATS will be rebuilding trails damaged by fire breaks in the Spring. Donate to them, please.
NWTA does not cover the Gorge directly, but partners with HRATS and 44 Trails for trails East of our area of stewardship. But feel free to donate to both. NWTA member dollars have been used to improve Syncline on the past (which was not impacted by the fires, but is a good example of coordinated effort).

Any good cycling-friendly suggestions on where to make a cash donation that would directly help those affected by the Gorge fires? I need to make a donation soon.
Maybe Trail building associations or NWTA for example?
Thanks for suggestions.
