MISSION STATEMENT OF THE DESERT TRAIL ASSOCIATION

The Mission of the Desert Trail Association is to establish a national hiking trail across the Western States desert areas from Mexico to Canada and to promote activities that protect the integrity of the desert by educating people about the desert, especially through the intimate contact of hiking and backpacking.
