Rubicon Trail
Patrol is an organized group of concerned trail users sanctioned by the
Rubicon Trail Foundation (RTF) and Friends Of The Rubicon (FOTR) and
recognized by the United States Forest Service (USFS) and El Dorado
County Sheriff (EDSO). While Trail Patrol works with local enforcement
groups, Trail Patrol is an educational, not an enforcement
organization. Trail Patrol members are regular trail users who
volunteer their time in order maintain OHV access for all users of the
Rubicon Trail.
Trail Patrol CORE Goals
Communicate:
Trail Patrol Directors will work with the Sheriff, USFS, FOTR and the
RTF to prioritize the goals of the Rubicon Trail and Trail Patrol
Representatives will communicate this information to the trail users on
the Rubicon trail.
Organize: Through our organizational
structure, we will strive to maintain exposure on the trail with
visible Trail Patrol Representatives and Captains on the Rubicon Trail.
Report:Trail Patrol Representatives and Trail Patrol Captains will report back
to the Trail Patrol Directors any important issues observed while on
patrol. Trail Directors will report back to the appropriate agency any
important issues.
Educate: Trail Patrol members will
maintain a presence on the trail talking directly to the trail users
about issues facing the trail, passing out any additional information
or simply reminding everyone to have fun, Tread Lightly, and Pack it
in, Pack it out.
