Are you passionate about trail sustainability for the truck and off-road industry? Get ready to roll up your sleeves.
The SEMA Truck & Off-Road Alliance (TORA) is seeking volunteers for a hands-on stewardship project along the first two miles of the Kane Creek Safari Route during Easter Jeep Safari 2026 in Moab, Utah. Led by SEMA and Tread Lightly!, in partnership with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), TORA and Off-Road Business Association (ORBA), the project will take place Tuesday, March 31, from 9:00 a.m. to approximately 2:00 p.m. MDT.
How Your Help Protects Land Use
The working project invites TORA and industry members to take part in protecting trail access and supporting responsible recreation during one of the off-road community's most recognized annual gatherings.
Volunteers will work alongside BLM staff to install buck-and-rail fencing at designated locations to protect sensitive resources, clearly define the travel route, and help ensure long-term motorized access. The project reinforces a shared commitment to keeping trails open and sustainable for future generations.
Participants will meet at 9:00 a.m. at a staging location near Kane Creek Road and depart at 9:30 a.m. for the Safari Route trailhead. The project is expected to conclude on or before 2:00 p.m.; however, if approximately 40 volunteers are in attendance, organizers anticipate finishing closer to 12:30 p.m.
This is a working project, and volunteers should come prepared for light to moderate physical labor, including post setting, rail placement and site cleanup. Lunch will be provided by TORA.
To ensure that through-traffic access is not blocked, participation will be limited to 15 vehicles on the trail. Volunteers are encouraged to carpool or shuttle as needed. Parking will be available near the trailhead for those who arrive in additional vehicles and can join others traveling onto the trail.
The stewardship project is free to attend; however, volunteer RSVP is required.
RSVP today to secure your spot and support the long-term sustainability of the trails that power the off-road industry.
