Tribute to the Trails Calendar Benefits WTA

Everyone loves a good calendar, especially when that calendar features action-packed subjects and stunning photography.

The 2016 Tribute to the Trails calendar is the work of Seattle photographer Glenn Tachiyama who captures some of the best moments in trail running in Washington. It features stunning photos and is brought to you by a team of volunteers who love trails. In fact, they love trails so much that all proceeds from sales go straight to WTA so we can continue building and maintaining the trails we all enjoy.

A project to support Washington's trails

Now in it's eleventh year, the Tribute to the Trails Calendar Project is the brainchild of WTA member, photographer and runner, Glenn Tachiyama, and WTA's past board president, Wendy Wheeler-Jacobs. Together, they produce the inspiring calendar to support WTA's work to protect and maintain trails.

Last year, the project raised more than $26,000 for WTA and trails. A huge thanks to Glenn, Wendy, calendar sponsors, volunteers and all the trail lovers out there!
