Background Statement
In recognition of the need of a county-wide trails organization, Headwaters Trails Alliance was established as a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation in 1996. The organization was formed through the efforts of Fraser Valley Partnership for Trails and Grand Lake Partners for Trails and with the support of the Grand County Board of Commissioners, the Grand County Planning Commission, and the individuals and groups who served on the Headwaters Trails Committee. Today HTA partners with federal, state, county and city land managers throughout Grand County on the maintenance, building and planning of trails for all user types.
