Let’s make trail history together.
We’re incredibly excited to invite you to an overnight trail work campout on August 1–2, 2026, in partnership with Oregon Timber Trail Alliance, Oakridge Trails Alliance, and Orogenesis.
Before anything else, we want to recognize Oregon Timber Trail Alliance. This project exists because of OTTA’s original vision and years of persistence to make this connection happen. They have championed this corridor from the very beginning, and we’re honored to help bring it to life alongside them.
For two days and one night, volunteers will camp near Scott Taylor Lake while helping build the Fuji Mountain/Bunchgrass Connector (FUGRASS), the final missing link connecting the Fuji Mountain and Bunchgrass trail systems.
Once complete, this new section of singletrack will create a seamless backcountry connection between two of Oakridge’s most iconic riding and hiking destinations, fulfilling a vision that has been years in the making. It will also become an important link within both the Oregon Timber Trail and the Orogenesis route, connecting riders and hikers through some of Oregon’s most spectacular backcountry.
This landscape has been traveled and cared for by Indigenous peoples since time immemorial and later by generations of explorers, workers, and recreationists. Soon, thanks to the work of volunteers, it will offer a new way for people to experience this incredible place.
Now we need your help to finish it.
Every foot of trail built this weekend brings us one step closer to opening a connection that volunteers have dreamed about for years. This is more than a trail work party. It’s a chance to spend a weekend in the mountains, camp beside the trail you’re helping build, share meals around camp, and leave knowing you’ve helped shape the future of recreation in Oakridge for generations to come.
Space is limited so we can safely manage work crews, tools, meals, and camping logistics.
