President’s Message - May 2026

From flooded boardwalks to beaver dams, our Trail Captains have been hard at work getting the Agreement Forest and Hilton Falls ready for another incredible season. Thanks to an extraordinary group of volunteers, a floating causeway bridge has been repaired, culverts cleared, and muddy sections are being assessed for smart, sustainable solutions — because every trail deserves to be at its best.

With new battery-powered tools on the horizon, a permanent electrified storage trailer at Hilton Falls, and Group Rides expanding to more days each week, 2026 is shaping up to be HAFTA's most exciting season yet. None of this happens without you — our members, volunteers, and corporate supporters who make it all possible.

Whatever brings you to the singletrack — big escarpment hikes, technical riding challenges, or rock-hopping trail runs — HAFTA's mission remains the same: make every visit fun, memorable, and worth coming back for.
