2020 Liquidlogic Kayak Raffle to Benefit MountainTrue
Liquidlogic has generously donated a brand new Braaap 69 whitewater kayak to MountainTrue to raffle off this spring as a fundraiser. Here's what Liquidlogic has to say about their new boat: "The Braaap is the progression in how a performance river running boat is defined. The Braaap has enough volume for all but your most challenging runs, yet it is small enough to control in the air, pivot turn, and surf like a dream." All raffle proceeds benefit the programs of MountainTrue - in particular, our four Riverkeepers who work hard to keep our region's rivers running clean for boaters to enjoy all year round! Enter to win today and support clean water in our mountains!

MountainTrue University: The Importance of NEPA
MountainTrue University: The Importance of NEPA
The National Environmental Policy Act, or NEPA, has received more press this year than ever amid legislative rollbacks at the federal level. Many organizations, MountainTrue included, have urged their members to contact their representatives and encourage them to protect NEPA. But what about this piece of legislation stands out?
In our first installment of MountainTrue University, our Western Regional Director, Callie Moore, will explain what NEPA is and why it's so important to the environmental movement. In her talk, Callie will provide case studies of how NEPA has helped us win environmental victories here in places like Fires Creek and Corridor K. She will also discuss how state environmental policy acts and the Freedom of Information Act support NEPA and our work protecting our local environment.
