🚵‍♀️💚 Volunteer Spotlight: The Biking Birdies 💚🚵‍♂️

A huge thank you to The Biking Birdies for coming out Thursday evening to help clear the Trackline area!

This incredible group of families and young riders rolled up their sleeves and got to work, helping keep our trails clean, safe, and enjoyable for everyone. It's especially inspiring to see the next generation of trail users learning the value of stewardship and giving back to the places they love to ride.

The truth is, it takes countless volunteer hours to maintain our trail system. From clearing vegetation and picking up litter to repairing infrastructure and improving trail conditions, volunteers are the backbone of our trails.

Please join us in thanking The Biking Birdies for their hard work and commitment to our community trails!

🛠️ Volunteer Spotlight 🛠️

A big thank you to our dedicated volunteers who spent time on the trails today replacing old, rotted trail totems with new ones!

Trail totems play an important role in helping visitors navigate the trail system and stay oriented while enjoying the outdoors. Over time, weather and wear can take their toll, making replacement necessary to keep our trails safe and user-friendly.

Thanks to these volunteers, trail users will continue to have clear wayfinding and a better experience on the trails for years to come.

Please join us in giving them a well-deserved thank you in the comments!

🌸 Spring is showing off on our trails!

Wildflowers are starting to pop up all around Ogden, and it’s one of the best times to get outside 🌼

As you explore, you may notice both native wildflowers and invasive plants along the trails.

A few friendly reminders:
🌿 Please don’t pick wildflowers—leave them for others (and pollinators!) to enjoy
📸 Photos are always encouraged
🌱 Curious about invasive species? Learning to identify them is a great way to help protect our trails

Have you seen any blooms yet? Share your photos below—we’d love to see what’s out there 👇

🐍 Heads up, trail friends!

As the weather warms up, snakes are active on our trails, including rattlesnakes.

Most snakes will avoid you if given space, so remember:
👀 Watch where you step and place your hands
🥾 Stay on designated trails
🐕 Keep pets close and on a leash

⚖️ Important reminder: Rattlesnakes are protected wildlife, and it is illegal to kill them.

They play an important role in our ecosystem, please give them space and let them be.

Have you spotted any yet this season?
