About Mother Lode Trails

Welcome!

ALL TRAIL USERS, INCLUDING 4,500 RUNNERS, HIKERS, DOG WALKERS, MT. BIKERS AND EQUESTRIANS have Park Watch Cards and are part of the local and original non-profit Park Watch Program.

As you can see, the old Park Watch Report.org has been renamed Mother Lode Trails, and for a good reason. For the past nine years, www.ParkWatchReport.ORG has been your local nonprofit home for trails information and the webpage to file Trail Incident Reports. With your participation, we now have nine years of trail data that has helped with trail planning, policy and information for all trails and public land groups.

We grew that original non-profit from a local entity serving Sacramento, Yuba, Nevada, El Dorado and Placer counties into a national professional presence, giving park districts and others the opportunity to launch Park Watch in their own areas across the country. To do so, we completely redesigned and have spun off www.ParkWatchReport.COM, along with the mobile app, ParkWatchReport, available at iTunes and Google Play. In addition, we have transferred the Incident Reports and data collection over to that new, more powerful, software. Park Watch Report is now a national trail incident reporting system and a separate entity from Mother Lode Trails.

We have renamed our local ParkWatchReport.ORG website to www.MotherLodeTrails.org - and that is where you have landed. We will continue being a wonderful local trail resource for all trail users.

We thank the Ann and Gordon Getty Foundation for their $20,000 grant and the additional grant of $10,000 recently to continue our safe trails and environmental preservation of public lands.
