Trail Advocacy

We are an affiliate of the national group; the Back Country Horsemen of America. Like this organization, we work toward trail maintenance and preservation, both locally and in the backcountry.

Volunteer Service

BCHA members believe that the use of horses on public lands and trails can exist in harmony with the interests of all Alaskan trail users. We offer volunteer time and equipment to:

• Clean up and clear trails

• Build and improve trails

• Create trail head facilities

• Assist agencies in planning strategies for trail use

Partnerships

We are eager to work with local organizations and other trail user groups. We work closely with the Matanuska-Sustina Borough, the Kenai Peninsula Wildlife Refuge and the Kenai Peninsula Borough. Check out our chapter pages (Kenai or Mat-Su) for more information on our partnerships and work.

Statewide Calendar

We've put together this (by NO means comprehensive) list of events happening around the state.

GREEN= Kenai Peninsula, PURPLE= Anchorage/Mat-Su, BLUE= Fairbanks/North Pole. Each event is a link to that organization's page where you can find more information or the event page itself if we could find it. We have mostly included kids' camps, clinics, safety classes, chapter events, and other trail related events.
