A Stravers’ shout-out

Dear Editor:

On behalf of the Mammoth Lakes Trails and Public Access Foundation (MLTPA) staff and Board of Directors, I’d like to extend a huge thank-you to the community members who shared in our Trail System Master Plan (TSMP) adoption celebration on Saturday night, Oct. 22. A great turnout filled the rooms so graciously donated by the Westin Monache Resort—our newest partner in the Mammoth Lakes Trail System—and we were proud to raise a glass of bubbly in tribute to the hundreds of volunteers without whom the TSMP update couldn’t have been completed. Special appreciation goes out to Brent Truax, Theresa Brocia, and Brandon Brocia of the Westin, who helped to orchestrate this lovely event.

Now that it’s adopted and its EIR has been certified, the TSMP can begin playing its true role as the master development plan for the Mammoth Lakes Trail System (MLTS). The opportunity for the necessary long-term commitment to the MLTS by the Town of Mammoth Lakes is on the horizon, as is a strong partnership agreement between the Town and the Inyo National Forest that will protect, improve, and sustain the MLTS for generations. We look forward to keeping the community informed and involved as these opportunities come forth, and we welcome any questions, any time, about the MLTS or MLTPA’s role in its development. We can be reached at info@mltpa.org or by calling 760.934.3154.

Thanks and congratulations to the Mammoth Lakes community!
