The mission of Trail Mix, Inc. is to be the steward of a safe and enjoyable Juneau Trail System by bringing people and resources together for trail planning, building, maintenance and activities.
We acknowledge with gratitude that we live, work, and recreate on the lands of the Áak’w Kwáan and T’aaku Kwáan on Dzantikʼi Héeni, part of Lingít Aaní, and near the ancestral home of the X̱aadas and Ts’msyen peoples. We honor the enduring stewardship these Indigenous communities model— rooted in respect, nurture, reciprocity, balance, and harmony with the Tongass. For the relentless care extended to this land, sustaining it since time immemorial, we say thank you and gunalchéesh.
Trail Mix, Inc. began in 1993 as a group of volunteers who wanted to improve and maintain the many miles of trail in Juneau. Much of Juneau’s hiking trails cross between land owned by local, state, and federal entities. This mosaic of land management can create issues for trails that cross over multiple jurisdictions. In 1992, the City and Borough of Juneau recognized that a third-party group was needed to coordinate and execute the improvements and maintenance of our trail system. One year later, Trail Mix was born.
