The American Hiking Society is a Maryland-based non-profit group dedicated to preserving trails, the areas that surround them, and the hiking experience itself. It was co-founded in 1976 by Bill Kemsley, the founding editor of Backpacker magazine. As a recreation-based organization, American Hiking Society champions conservation issues, builds partnerships between public and private stakeholders, and provides critical resources to plan, fund and develop foot trails. |
