About

Building community one trail at a time.

We are dirt addicts. We like to ride bicycles, run and hike on dirt trails. And we want the best experience possible, so we design, build and maintain many trails in and around Omaha, Council Bluffs, Fremont and Lincoln. We keep them mowed, trimmed and safe for all users. We clear downed trees and repair water damage. Maybe you thought this was done by the city or state park’s office. Nope, probably us.

We’re not a bunch of rogue tree huggers. We are regular folks who just want to have good trails to use. Our trail crew leaders are trained by experts in trail building and design so that our trails will withstand use by everyone, including Mother Nature.

And what we put in seems to come back ten-fold. We hold fun events like group bike rides on and off the trails, cook-outs, fund raising events, movie nights and family fun days. You could say we make sure to enjoy the fruits of our labor.
