Siskiyou Mountain Club

SISKIYOU MOUNTAIN CLUB ************ MISSION: Siskiyou Mountain Club is a 501(c)(3) public charity formed to restore, maintain, and promote primitive trails in the Siskiyou backcountry and beyond. We coordinate stewardship projects with volunteers, staff, and interns; publish maps and outdoor information, and lead service-adventure for the public. WHAT WE DO: "Long live the backwoods trails" We coordinate with staff, volunteers, interns, and other partners who do the hard work it takes to keep trails from disappearing from the remote corners of Southwest Oregon and Northwest California. They participate in trips of varying lengths and put the labor in to keep our trails alive. HISTORY: We started in 2010 as a small group of volunteers determined to restore a single route through the infamous Kalmiopsis Wilderness Area. Since then we’ve become the area’s only organization dedicated to wilderness and trail stewardship. We are leading the way to preserving the most threatened trails throughout Southwest Oregon and Northwest California. LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT: We work in the ancestral lands of the Karuk, Yurok, Shasta, Modoc, Tolowa Dee-ni’, Takelma, Chit-dee-ni (Chetco), Cow Creek Umpqua, and Tutuni societies, and we acknowledge the nuance of wilderness ethics and that wilderness is a white social construct.
