The Winter Wildlands Alliance

I'm all about the human powered experience.... So I'm very proud to be a WWA Ambassador!

Here's a short WWA promo video to get you stoked!

Here's the WWA mission statement !
Formed in February, 2000, the WWA is the first and only national organization working on behalf of snowshoers, skiers, snowboarders, winter hikers, and other outdoor adventurers, addressing local and national issues that impact our winter wildlands.

We believe management of our public lands should be balanced in order to protect wild places where current and future winter adventurers can experience the natural sights, sounds, and beauty of winter free of inappropriate development or motorized vehicles.

As advocates, WWA builds relationships with grassroots snowsports and conservation groups, providing networking opportunities and useful resources. WWA publicizes local and national issues and maintains a national presence by communicating regularly with Forest Service, Park Service, and Congressional representatives and encouraging agencies to adopt skier- and snowshoer-friendly policies. And our work and initiatives continue to grow.
As activists, WWA builds relationships with grassroots snowsports and conservation groups, providing networking opportunities and useful resources. The Alliance publicizes national issues and maintains a national presence by communicating regularly with Forest Service, Park Service, and Congressional representatives, commenting on draft plans and encouraging agencies to adopt nonmotorized-friendly policies. We provide useful information to activists through an online information clearinghouse and action alert network. And our work and initiatives continue to grow.
