We have raised $17,555 so far through pledges and donations. Help us reach our goal of $30,000 by donating today!

Our pledge donations are based on how many feet of trail our crew builds in the month of September. Starting September 1st we began tracking our footage for the fundraiser and thus far we are excited to share that our trail crew built 395 feet of trail since the start of the campaign. Supporting the Cumberland Trails Conference goes directly to completing the building of the Cumberland Trail.

If you are feeling generous, pledge now by hitting the "Pledge Now" button at www.cumberlandtrail.org

If you would like to send a direct donation, hit the "Donate Now" button at www.Cumberland trail.org

Meet Dusty Keeton

He has been building trail with the CTC since August 2016 with a one year hiatus in Colorado during 2020-2021.

Dusty loves numerous aspects of his job such as being surrounded by nature and exploring waterways, but says the best part is building trail for the public to explore.

His favorite segment of the CT is Soak Creek. He really enjoyed building trail in that area. The diversity of life on the Soak Creek segment has been the most abundant of any trail he has constructed.

“I feel lucky to be able to access and discover

“I feel lucky to be able to access and discover many of Tennessee’s greatest natural wonders by way of the Cumberland Trail. It is the perfect way for me to escape city life by either a quick hike to a beautiful waterfall, a long solo day hike with just the company of my dog, or even an entire weekend of backpacking amongst close friends! I believe that the CTC is vital to keeping the trail built and maintained. I have not only donated my money, but also my time to building this trail. It has proven to be one of the hardest, yet most rewarding of volunteer opportunities. I will never look at a trail the same!”
- Sheryl Handley
