This initiative is a great opportunity to promote Missouri’s proud outdoor heritage, improve your health and – best of all – have fun with family and friends.

Missouri – Best Trails State 2013

The challenge has been organised in part to celebrate Missouri being named the ‘Best Trail State’ in April 2013 by American Trails, a national, nonprofit organization working on behalf of the nation’s hiking, biking and riding trails. The award is presented every two years to the state that has made excellent progress in promoting and improving their trails.

We’ll be hiking, backpacking and paddling our way towards the 100 miles. It’s just the challenge we need to entice us out from behind our desks and in the studio where we’ve been spending far too many hours of late. We’re looking forward to some time on the trails, lakes and creeks.
