The New Type II Fun: Public Land Advocacy Panel Discussion

Saturday | 5:15–6:30 PM

The outdoor industry is great at getting people outside and celebrating the wild places where we run, ride, hike, and explore. But how good are we at protecting them?

Join Trust for Public Land, The North Face, and The Rut Mountain Runs for a happy hour and candid conversation about the state of our public lands, the challenges and opportunities ahead, and why the trail running community has the potential to be a powerful voice for positive change.

Moderated by Ed Roberson, host of the Mountain & Prairie podcast, the conversation will bring together athletes, conservation leaders, advocates, and trail builders to explore what it means to move from simply enjoying these places to actively showing up for them.
