Welcome to the Trail Ambassador Resource Hub 

CLICK HERE to access the Trail Ambassador Portal  

On the Trail Ambassador Portal, you’ll find everything you need to support your work as a Trail Ambassador. This page includes our four online training videos, each paired with a short questionnaire designed to check your understanding and capture your areas of interest as an Ambassador.

Resources

You can also access the Trail Ambassador Handbook, a go-to guide offering quick refreshers, detailed information on the Honoring the Land ethic and Leave No Trace principles, and helpful reminders for those unexpected moments on the trail. Additional resources—such as the Backcountry Volunteer Safety Plan and information on the Ten Essentials—are available here as well.

End of Day Reporting

After each day in the field, please complete an End of Day Report. This form helps us better understand your experience and measure the impact Trail Ambassadors have on visitors. Think of it as your field journal! 😁
In your report, you’ll record visitor contacts and how they went, litter collected (by weight), observations of damage, vandalism, social trails, and trash, completed visitor surveys, and overall trail conditions.

Area Maps & Patrol Guides

Whether you’re exploring a new site or returning to a familiar one, be sure to check out our comprehensive collection of area maps and guides. These resources cover every Trail Ambassador volunteer location and are an excellent tool to support your field preparedness—whether it’s your first patrol or your hundredth.
