Memorial Day weekend is considered the unofficial start of summer. As we head outdoors to ride, camp, explore, and enjoy public lands, remember that protecting these places is everyone’s responsibility.

Whether you’re on the trail, at the dunes, or in the backcountry, minimizing your impact helps protect access and keeps our outdoor spaces open for future generations.

Remember to follow the T.R.E.A.D. Principles this weekend:

• Travel Responsibly: Stay on designated routes and respect closures
• Respect the Rights of Others: Be courteous to fellow outdoor enthusiasts and nearby communities
• Educate Yourself: Know the rules, conditions, and preparedness needed before heading out
• Avoid Sensitive Areas: Protect wildlife habitats, wetlands, and cultural sites
• Do Your Part: Pack out trash, minimize campfire impacts, and leave it better than you found it

We’re halfway there! 🎉

Together, we’ve reached 500+ completed Responsible Rider Masterclasses on our way to 1,000, and every course completed helps protect our playgrounds!

Take the Water, Snow, or Offroad 101 course at https://treadlightly.org/responsibleridermasterclass/ and for every completion, BRP will donate $35 to support 35 Tread Lightly! stewardship projects through the Drive 35 campaign.

A huge THANK YOU to BRP and to everyone who has completed a course so far and committed to riding responsibly. 👏

Let’s keep the momentum going and reach 1,000 completions!

Huge thanks to everyone who joined the Edge of the World stewardship project at Overland Expo West in the Coconino National Forest! 🌲🛠️

With the support of our incredible partners, Overland Expo Foundation, Trails Offroad and Thret Offroad, more than 20 volunteers came together to install a new educational kiosk focused on responsible recreation and trail stewardship.

Projects like this help protect access and public lands by educating trail users on how we can all recreate responsibly for generations to come.

Thank you to every volunteer who showed up ready to work and give back to the trails we all love!
