I am once again participating in the annual Hike-a-Thon for the Washington Trails Association! Last year more than 60 of you helped me raise more than $5500 for our trails! WOW! Thanks!! This year I\u2019d like to top that and raise $6000 for our trails. Will you please consider helping me meet this goal?<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You know how important trails are to our healthy outdoor lives-and you know how underfunded our trails are. The Washington Trails Association (WTA) is responsible for keeping so many of our trails open and in excellent shape.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I will be hiking my\u00a0<em>culo<\/em>\u00a0off during the month of August spreading the good word about WTA and raising money for our trails.

Thanks to the great folks at Oboz Footwear, Mountaineers Books, and Green Trails Maps, I have some great hiker-essential products to give away!<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anyone making a donation of any amount is eligible to WIN a pair of <a href=\"https:\/\/obozfootwear.com\/\">OBOZ hiking shoes<\/a>.Your name will automatically be entered into a drawing from the hiking shoes of your choice. And thanks to the generosity of <a href=\"http:\/\/brownsoutdoor.com\/\">Brown&#8217;s Outdoors<\/a> in Port Angeles, I am also giving away an Osprey Atmos Backpack worth $230! Make a donation of at least $10 and be entered into a drawing!<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I will be also giving away maps, books and an opportunity for you to hike with me and appear in one of my upcoming guidebooks!<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And anyone who makes a donation of $50 or more automatically becomes a member of WTA.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I thank you all in advance for your support.
