Wasatch Trails Foundation kicks off busy June with trail work, rides and free community events

WASATCH BACK, Utah — The Wasatch Trails Foundation (WTF) has a packed schedule this month, including opening Wasatch County’s first asphalt pump track, with events ranging from trail maintenance days to a grand opening, giving outdoor enthusiasts plenty of ways to get involved.

Dig and shuttle days with Thule

June 4 is Dig Day. WTF is paying it back to the trails by giving a few hours of time and work on the epic WHOA trail. Just bring yourself and a willing attitude, and they’ll provide the tools, snacks, water, and SWAG.

On June 5, WTF and Thule team up for an all-day shuttle ride featuring seven hours of laps on some of the best trails in Wasatch County. Laps will be led by Eric Porter, a professional mountain biker and Thule ambassador. Riders can show up anytime between 11 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. at the Pine Canyon Bike Park lot.

Register here.

Attendees at either event can enter a raffle for a chance to win a Thule ReVert bike rack, along with other giveaways. Thule will also donate $5 to the Wasatch Trails Foundation for every sign-up.
