American Hiking Society is proud to administer the nation's only privately funded grant program dedicated solely to protecting America's hiking trails. Approximately $50,000 is awarded annually to trail and conservation organizations to support a wide range of projects. The trails fund is supported in part by generous donations from L.L. Bean, Therm-a-Rest and MSR.

On Friday August 31, I was in Silver Spring, Maryland where I sat down to chat with my colleague Ivan Levin. Ivan is American Hiking Society's Trail Programs Manager, and he oversees the National Trails Fund. To listen to this 7 minute 48 second interview, please click here (3.7 MB).
