RUBICON TRAIL and FOTR: ABOUT US (WHO ARE WE)?

We are the central clearing house for all Rubicon Trail related issues.

Friends of the Rubicon (FOTR) is an informal coalition of groups and individuals dedicated to keeping the Rubicon Trail open and available to all recreationists. We are working with Placer County, El Dorado County, the USFS, private businesses, many organized recreation groups, and other land management agencies to ensure our famed Rubicon Trail remains as one of our crown jewels of motorized and mechanized recreation. You can join our effort simply by emailing me, to get on the FOTR email list and by reading these web pages.

We are not an organization that collects dues or has bylaws, etc. We are all just partners working towards the same goal: to keep the Rubicon open and useable, while mitigating the erosion and water runoff problems from portions of the road. We do have a unique structure and organization (RICS) that keeps us one of the most organized work groups around.  You won't waste your time or feel unproductive on our projects.

We are also about responsible use of the trail. We don't advocate building new bypasses or using shortcuts around the established trail and existing bypasses. We advocate obeying the rules and the law, as well as trail ethics.

We now sit at the table as an official permanent member of the Rubicon Oversight Committee (ROC) that will guide the future of the Rubicon Trail.
