CELEBRATION OF TRAILS WEEKEND 2019 events:
When: Friday, May 31
Join Bear Yuba Land Trust (BYLT), outdoor recreationists and trail supporters May 31 – June 1 for Celebration of Trails, the biggest showcase of local community trails all year! Trails are one of our greatest community assets. They build strong neighborhoods and boost the local economy. Trails get us outside and close to nature for healthy exercise and spiritual renewal.
We’ll kick things off on Friday, May 31, 5-8pm at the Ol’ Republic Taproom on Argall Way for Ales for Trails. Stop by for a tasty beverage, music and food. Meet fellow trail lovers and BYLT staff. You can also sign up you or your team for the Hike-A-Thon the next day!
On Saturday, June 1, join us on the trail for our 2nd annual Hike-A-Thon on the Pioneer Trail, part of the future Pines to Mines Trail. Raise money for trails with every step and win prizes along the way! After, we’ll meet you at the Ol’ Republic Roadhouse (old 5 Mile House on Hwy 20) for a vendor village and festival setting with many of your favorite outdoor groups and businesses, music, food, speakers and more! Yuba Bus will provide shuttle rides all day long.

Hike-A-Thon starts on the Pioneer Trail at 10 a.m.
Concludes around noon
Where: Pioneer Trail segment along Highway 20, finishes at Ol’ Republic Roadhouse (old 5 Mile House)
Participants will hike five miles, starting just south of White Cloud Campground off Hwy 20 along the Pioneer Trail and future Pines to Mines Trail and finish at Ol’ Republic Brewery’s new Roadhouse (old 5 Mile House), raising money for trails with each step.
The campaign’s overall goal is to raise $10,000 for maintaining and building Nevada County trails.
The vision of the future multi-use Pines to Mines Trail is a 72-mile trail linking the towns of Nevada City and Truckee by using existing trail systems. Bear Yuba Land Trust is in the early stages of working with a number of trail organizations on the development of this project that will take years of community support.
BYLT’s Hike-A-Thon is not a race. It’s a family-friendly event for people of all ages and a fun way to get outdoors and support a cause that is healthy for everyone. Yuba Bus is partnering with BYLT and will provide morning shuttles from Nevada County Government Center to the Hike-A-Thon starting point. A number of prizes are available to Hike-A-Thon participants.
At the finish line, friends, family, outdoor enthusiasts and trail lovers will cheer Hike-A-Thon participants and celebrate the rest of the day with music, food, fun activities and more.
