Some of us are leaders, some are followers.
Some walk trails, and some blaze them.
Put the Applegate Trails Association into the "blaze" category.
ATA members put in a lot of time and effort, leading hikes and working to make new trails.
The association's main efforts are focused on the Applegate Ridge Trail (ART), designed to allow a continuous hike from Jacksonville to Grants Pass.
An association member stops by to talk about the group and its work.
